Whatever your pleasure, let the Orbitz travel team inspire your Fort Lauderdale vacation with the top 10 things to do, best times to hit the beach and lesser-known gems.

Best time to take a vacation to Fort Lauderdale

  • Known for hot (and hotter) weather, Fort Lauderdale brings on warm beach vacations with gusto. For ideal beach weather and the most popular time to visit Fort Lauderdale, plan your trip between November and April when highs range from the 70s to the low 80s, with nighttime lows in the 60s.

    For the best hotel deals and fewer crowds, come to Fort Lauderdale late May through October. But here's the catch: this "rainy season" typically brings brief afternoon showers, followed by increased humidity which can make the heat downright intense. On the flip side, the town is much more accessible, open and affordable.

More on Fort Lauderdale from AOL Travel

  • Tourists looking to soak up some sun on pristine beaches or take in art and cultural events will enjoy a vacation to Fort Lauderdale. The stylish renovation of Fort Lauderdale Beach features seven miles of white sandy beaches, punctuated by a wave wall and beachfront promenade district with places to shop, dine al fresco and listen to live music. Explore the many beaches on the southeast Florida Atlantic coast and visit neighboring Deerfield Beach, Hollywood or Lauderdale-By-The-Sea. Water-sports opportunities abound in Fort Lauderdale. Tourists can explore the city from the water on a sightseeing cruise, sign up for a guided kayak tour of local waterways, scuba dive or snorkel at one of the area’s 75 wrecks and reefs or parasail high above the Atlantic Ocean. Heading to Las Olas Boulevard is a must for Fort Lauderdale visitors.

With so many cultural opportunities available, Fort Lauderdale lives up to its nickname, “the Venice of America.” The strip stays busy when the sun goes down—tourists can discover fine-dining restaurants, sidewalk cafes and pubs offering an array of food and drink. Neighboring A1A also heats up in the evenings, with indoor and outdoor bars just steps away from the beach. Dotted throughout this Atlantic-Coast city are casinos, jai alai facilities and horseracing tracks, which can get gamblers’ hearts pounding with the thrill of a win.
