(10-5-18) The alluring oceanfront city of Pompano Beach has quickly become one of South Florida’s hidden gems thanks to its peaceful beaches, affordable vacation rentals, and an abundance of unique restaurants and attractions. Scuba divers, craft beer aficionados, and sunbathers flock to this beautiful yet uncrowded beach community 12 months a year to escape from the daily grind of city life. Beach Vacation Rentals has tropical cottages, condos, and boutique apartments steps from the Atlantic Ocean and centrally located to Pompano Beach’s best attractions. Our top-rated vacation rentals were meticulously designed to help tourists relax and unwind in tropical serenity. The city itself has that small-town feel and offers a wide variety of excitement, beauty, and amusement. Whether you’re aiming to play cards at the smoke-free Pompano casino, relax on a tranquil beach, or explore splendid Butterfly World, the friendly and knowledgeable staff at Beach Vacation Rentals will help point you in the right direction! Here are three essential stops in beautiful Pompano Beach, Florida.
Butterfly World
Butterfly World is technically a block outside the city limits, but we still love it as if it’s our own. We always direct families who stay with us at Beach Vacation Rentals to these vibrant botanical gardens and world’s largest butterfly farm. Let a colorful butterfly land on your finger, meet a litter of beautiful lorikeets, and check out the world’s largest passion vine collection. The botanical gardens are a meticulously-cultivated marvel. Many nature photographers snap professional photos of flowers, butterflies, parrots, ponds, and waterfalls. The insect museum (for those who dare enter) is a genuinely rousing experience.
Isle Casino Racing Pompano Park
Tourists and locals alike head out for a great evening of dining and entertainment to the smoke-free Isle Casino Racing Pompano Park. They enjoy poker, dazzling slots, live entertainment, an assortment of fabulous restaurants, and harness racing. Pompano Harness Park has been the home of world-class standardbred horse racing since the mid-1960s, earning our city the title of “Winter Capital of Harness Racing.” The large, modern, indoor casino has a wide variety of top-notch restaurants for those looking for a steakhouse, Italian, grand buffet, or delicatessen. The Fling Lounge also has live entertainment every Saturday night.
Pompano Beach / North Ocean Park
While our oceanfront city sees thousands of tourists and locals sunbathe and picnic on Pompano Beach, it remains one of the cleanest, quietest, and most beautiful sandy beaches in the country. Pompano has earned a “Blue Wave Beach” designation by the Clean Beaches Coalition. The city completed a $50-million revitalization of its beachfront promenade, and Pompano Beach Pier is currently undergoing a $15 million, state-of-the-art reconstruction slated to open in March 2019. It’s already flanked by casual and upscale dining with spectacular water views and iconic architecture. The north end of the beach, North Ocean Park, has stellar views of the uniquely-erected, historic Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse, and is nationally known as “the scene” for extreme water sports such as kiteboarding and big-game kayak fishing.
