Hosted in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the self-styled “superyacht capital of the world", the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, (FLIBS) claims to be the largest boat show in the world: it covers more than 278,000 square metres of space over seven locations.
Every year, the show exhibits a vast array of the industry's latest boats and yachts of all sizes, worldwide debuts, plus a medley of marine products and accessories to enhance the nautical lifestyle. From yacht builders and designers to exotic cars and brokerage yachts, this show has something for everyone.
The city of Fort Lauderdale lies between the exotic Everglades and the blue wave beaches. From kid-friendly attractions, cruises, water-sports, sightseeing and much more, the city has plenty to offer. Just a few minutes from the beach is Riverwalk Arts and Entertainment District in downtown Fort Lauderdale, home to cultural attractions, shops, parks and restaurants.
