You will see watercraft of every size cruising or moored along the Intracoastal Waterway of Fort Lauderdale. They range from super-mega luxury yachts to ultra-small aluminum boats. The best way to tour the “Venice of America” is by water taxi. These double-decker vessels will take you past spectacular mansions and hotels, beneath drawbridges and provide wonderful skyline views of downtown. They also make frequent stops at the most popular restaurants, bars and intersections.
