Explore Fort Lauderdale with Ease
Las Olas Boulevard
Stretching through the heart of downtown, Las Olas is a vibrant mile lined with art galleries, shops, cafés, and museums. All sidewalks and crosswalks are ADA-compliant, making it easy to explore with a wheelchair or mobility scooter rental. Highlights include the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, the Museum of Discovery and Science, and the NSU Art Museum — all accessible and worth a visit.
Canal Tours & Sightseeing Cruises
Known as the “Venice of America,” Fort Lauderdale boasts over 300 miles of scenic canals and waterways. Wheelchair-accessible sightseeing cruises like the Jungle Queen and Carrie B offer a unique view of the city’s mansions, mega-yachts, and cruise ships. (Note: Carrie B’s restrooms are not accessible.)

Fort Lauderdale is home to both the International Swimming Hall of Fame and the IGFA Fishing Hall of Fame. These venues are fully accessible and offer unique experiences for all visitors.
