Nikki was super helpful with area recommendations (restaurants, local state park with beach access, bike rides)! We visited the Ft. Lauderdale area mainly for bicycling but she had beach towels and beach chairs, so we went to Hugh Taylor Birch State Park as a rest day from cycling. It was a great place!
On Saturday while bicycling, we stumbled onto the Los Alas Farmers' Market (Oceanside Park) which, among other vendors, had a wonderful fruit selection. The fruit was in ready-to-eat containers so we purchased a couple mixed varieties and enjoyed the surroundings!
