ort Lauderdale is a city with a multitude of options for its gay residents and visitors, building its base from the ever-growing and increasingly active gay community. With a host of bed and breakfasts, resorts, bars, clubs, restaurants and other businesses catering to the community, this resort city has stepped out of the shadow of its famous neighbor to the South, establishing itself as a destination in its own right. Its attractions are simple: a broad, long white sand beach, warm, blue ocean water, a friendly and courteous “family” oriented gay community, an affordable option to the pricey Miami Beach and easy access, by air, from anywhere in the United States, Canada and abroad. Due to the tireless efforts of the local gay community and an enterprising Convention and Visitors Bureau, Fort Lauderdale has become more popular than ever with gay travelers. This has always been a known fact to the Leather Community – particularly the European Leather Community who have, for years, converged upon the city for winter warm-ups. Often thought of as an “alternative” destination to Miami, Key West, Orlando and the Palm Beaches; these cities may have one particular facet that outshines Fort Lauderdale but it would be difficult for any of them to boast the complete array of activities this city has to offer. With its gay bed & breakfasts, mainstream gay-friendly hotels, several gay beaches, alternative and mainstream gay nightlife, tourist attractions, FTL's got it all. Check out the Everglades, Sawgrass Mills, Las Olas Boulevard, Galleria Mall, Beach Place, the Broward Performing Arts Center, Museum of Science and Discovery & Broward Museum of Art. There is also excellent shopping, fishing, boating, golfing & bike riding. Fort Lauderdale stands out as a pearl on Florida's coastline. For more info, check out www.Gayosphere.com 2

Getting Here By Air: Fort Lauderdale is served by two airports, Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International (FLL) and Miami International (MIA). Fort Lauderdale Int’l is only minutes from the beach and downtown Fort Lauderdale. It is a smaller and less trafficked airport. FLL is host to Southwest Airlines, Jet Blue and other low-cost carriers that often offer better domestic fares than MIA. Miami International is one of the largest airports in the world and an important hub for traffic between North America and Latin America. American Airlines is MIA’s major carrier. Check airfare to both airports before booking your flight while also considering ground transportation. Fort Lauderdale is 25-40 minutes north of Miami by car and a taxi can run you up to $65. By Car: Three main highways lead to Fort Lauderdale. I95 extends south along the Atlantic coast of Florida serving Fort Lauderdale and terminates in Miami. U.S. Highway 1 provides access from the Florida Keys to the south of Miami and I-75 cuts in from the west and Florida’s Gulf coast. By Train: Amtrak and TriRail provide frequent national and regional service to the Greater Fort Lauderdale area. Convenient stations just off of Interstate 95 make it convenient to arrive and depart by rail. Call 800-USA-RAIL or visit amtrak.com for Amtrak’s schedules. For TriRail go to www.tri-rail.com By Boat: Fort Lauderdale boasts the largest passenger cruise port in the world. Excellent marinas abound with restocking, repair and storage facilities.
