The Village
Old Florida Charm, Steps from Your Door
A low-rise beach village between Fort Lauderdale and Pompano Beach.
The neighborhood
A beach town made for walking
Lauderdale-by-the-Sea is a small, walkable beach town with a fishing pier, a single main street of cafés and restaurants, and no high-rises on the beach. Some of Florida’s best shore snorkeling sits just off the sand, and Fort Lauderdale is a short drive away when you want the city.
