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
one of the top six US boardwalks by the Travel Channel and is ideal for walking, biking, or
rollerblading. 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 north 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...
