6 Free Things to do in Lauderdale by the Sea That You Shouldn't Miss
With 2.5 miles of beautiful beaches, an iconic pier and lovely ocean vistas, Lauderdale by the Sea is a small community that attracts visitors from around the world. Here low-rise downtown buildings and mid-century modern architecture exude old Florida charm, even as they celebrate the town’s present-day connection to the ocean — most hotels, restaurants and shops are just a few minutes’ walk from Anglin’s Square, a charming oceanfront gathering place.

What a little treasure trove! This lovely shop has something for everyone...male, female, young and old... there is a gift, piece of jewellery, art work or beach accessory for everyone and caters for all budgets. Everything sold is topical to the area and supplied by local artists. The owner, Ina, was incredibly helpful and welcoming and I will definitely be going back to “Coast” on my next visit to town.

I like shopping in this store. The owners are nice. A variety of merchandise for all ages. A few years ago I bought a waist belt. It is very different from the other pouches I’ve had because you can’t see it under my workout shorts or slacks. Because of this, I can walk with no purse and not fear being robbed or a purse being pulled from my body. I think it’s called “Get Waisted”. It holds my keys and wallet on one side and my phone and slim reading glasses on the other side. It makes a great gift. The store also has nice jewelry. It’s a cute store and I love checking out the new merchandise.

We were staying close to Friedt Family Park but really never took the time to actually LOOK at it. Although it's small in area it provides numerous opportunities for families to bring their children to the park, basketball court and a number of tennis courts. We observed many families with their young children in the park section, a large group of young men playing basketball and all of the tennis courts in use with people sitting on the sidelines waiting to play. A great asset to Lauderdale by the Sea.
