Enrich your travels with a different type of adventure — one filled with designer discoveries and breathtaking fashion. Greater Fort Lauderdale, Florida, lets you escape in style during Lauderdale Shop Chic, November 1 – 26, 2008.

Shopping destinations like The Galleria Mall and the Colonnade Outlets at Sawgrass Mills, invite you to turn up the dial on style — for less. And when you book a hotel stay on sunny.org during this time, you’ll also enjoy a free pink “pamper pouch” including a stylish re-shoppable bag, beach towel and offers. It’s your chance to enjoy special deals that get you ready for the holiday gift and party season, while you revisit summer amid this tropical destination.

From full-service spa resorts to intimate Superior Small Lodgings, the lodgings of Greater Fort Lauderdale offer quality hospitality and accommodations. The Lauderdale Luxe Collection, a designation of fine hotels, offers seamless service, extraordinary amenities and sophisticated surroundings. Check out sunny.org/luxe for all the fabulous details.

Set out on an epicurean adventure throughout the area. You’ll discover dishes like herb-crusted organic salmon with spicy green papaya and crab salad, and everything from divine desserts, to an earthy conch chowder with Bimini bread, to the best burger you’ve ever tasted.

After you indulge the foodie in you, feast on sensational scenery and ease. In beach chic Greater Fort Lauderdale, sunny blue skies invite you to relax and play amid  23 miles of Blue Wave beaches and 300 miles of yacht-lined waterways. In fact, water is the defining element of Greater Fort Lauderdale, which is why you’ll find limitless ways to enjoy it. Experience parasailing, jet skiing, kite surfing and more, or explore the beauty beneath the sea. With over 100 wrecks and reefs accessible by boat or beach, divers can explore colorful sea life. And an entirely different type of boat, the airboat, will take you into Florida’s “ River of Grass” to journey through the wild and exotic Everglades.

A world away, Downtown Fort Lauderdale is home to the Riverwalk Arts & Entertainment District, which includes the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, Museum of Art Fort Lauderdale and Florida Grand Opera.
