Compare Historic Hotels in Dania Beach

Dania is nestled right next to Florida's east coast, just below Fort Lauderdale and a short drive from Miami. With a bustling downtown area and a lively beachfront, there is much to love about this quintessential Florida town. Because of its closeness to the Atlantic Ocean, it is home to top attractions such as the IGFA Fishing Hall of Fame & Museum, which houses the world's largest fishing library and has access to wetlands so you can spot live alligators.

Key Facts

One of Dania's best qualities is its South Florida location. It is just south of Fort Lauderdale Airport (FLL), which can be reached via US1. Miami International Airport (MIA) is also only a half-hour drive away via Interstate 95 South. Aside from the lively downtown area, it is just a short drive on the A1A to Dania's bustling beachfront.

Hints and Tips

With some of the best weather found anywhere in the United States, Dania rarely falls below 70 degrees in the daytime. The shore, known appropriately as Dania Beach, is lined with bars and restaurants, which are separated from the ocean only by a pedestrian walkway. People of all ages are frequently seen dancing to the Latin music blaring from the nearby bars. There is a distinctly Cuban tone to many of the restaurants and bars in the area, but traces of old Florida can also be found in the little waterfront shacks and dive bars scattered throughout the city.
