The Hollywood Beach Broadwalk in Hollywood, Florida offers a ~2.6 mile view of palm-tree laden white sand beach without the 40-story buildings and heavy traffic of its surrounding neighbors. The Hollywood Beach Florida Broadwalk was named one of the top ten nostalgic promenades by USA Today and is ideal for walking, biking, or rollerblading and rentals are available if you don't bring your own wheels.   A separate bike path gives Hollywood Beach bikers a mostly interrupted ride with the exception of the occasional walker who strays from the bricklined pedestrian walkway and doesn't realize the white sidewalk is a bike path.  Joggers might prefer running in the morning when the crowds are lighter.  Hollywood Beach FL facilities include restrooms and outdoor showers.  Hollywood Beach safety includes twenty-one lifeguard towers, eight first-aid stations, lanterns and colored lights for safe night walking. Numerous inexpensive beachfront restaurants and hotels are available so a Hollywood Beach Florida vacation can be very economical. Built in the 1920s, the Hollywood Beach Florida broadwalk (not boardwalk) area is undergoing a continuing renovation including a $15 million renovation of the historic Ramada Beach Resort.  Hollywood Beach FL offers a park for the kids and courts for playing paddleball. As well, Hollywood Beach Florida offers periodic concerts (every 2nd and 4th Friday night at 7PM), volleyball tournaments, festivals, fireworks on July 4th and various cultural events. At Johnson Street there is a park which features covered playgrounds, exercise stations, bike racks, and tables for ping pong and chess. At the far north side of the Broadwalk are a sea turtle hatchery and picnic facilities. Every Sunday Josh's Organic Garden along the Hollywood Beach broadwalk is open from 9AM to 5:30PM at Harrison Street and every fourth Friday is Classic Cruise Night. Fort Lauderdale Beach is approximately seven miles to the north of Hollywood Beach while Miami / South Beach is approximately fifteen miles to the south.       

Another nice video starting from the other end of the Hollywood Beach boardwalk.  Note that this video was shot on a Mother's Day when there was also a Footvolley Tournament.  Hollywood Beach Florida parking is much better than its better-known neighbors to the north and south but on major holidays Hollywood Beach FL can be a little more crowded...
