Pompano Beach Florida - Attractions & Things To Do In ... - Visit Florida

From relaxing on the beach and water sports to fine dining and excellent shopping, Pompano Beach has it all. Pompano Beach, centrally located between Palm Beach and Miami, has been nicknamed “the Heart of the Gold Coast.”

Its clear blue waters and fine golden sand set the stage for a wide variety of beach and water activities, from shipwreck scuba diving to boating to surfing. Swim directly from shore to snorkel a coral reef, fish from the 900-foot-long pier, and walk the adjacent Pompano Beach Fishing Village for dining, shopping, interesting architecture, and stunning views.

Pompano Beach also maintains more than 50 local parks for outdoor recreation and sports activities, and local attractions and shopping provide plenty of entertainment options with annual special events that include the Pompano Beach Seafood Festival.
