One of your favorite locations, especially during offseason. The beach is clean, easy access to parking and there is a basketball court nearby. Try to avoid the summer tourist crowds

Public Parking on this side of Las Olas isn’t for the faint hearted: $20 for 1hr, $25 for 2hrs. I’ll go dine a mile or two west of there where parking won’t put a big hole in my pocket. 😊
