What to do walking distance from Hyatt Place FLL

[ssbeard1]

Our flight arrives at noon and we are staying at Hyatt Place Cruise Port.  We have stayed here before but our flight was in late afternoon.  We will be a party of 8 (with a 7 and 9 YO).   Looking for any activities within a reasonable walking distance (less than 3/4 mile).

Dock for the water taxi is on the outer edge of your walking range. Fun way to spend 1-5 or more hours. Recommended here frequently.

Sun Trolley has  a nearby stop or walk toward the Hilton Marina and take a 3 hour tour on the water taxi.

The Sun Trolley is now the free LauderGo shuttle from the Harbor Shops Publix (directly behind the Embassy Suites).  See there website for the various routes including the beach and Las Olas Blvd.

Thank you so much.   We are familiar where the Publix is since we got sodas there a few years ago before our cruise.   Will definitely check the trolley out and live the word “free”. 🤣🤣🤣.   When you pay for 8 people it adds up quickly.

Not only free but it is air conditioned too! If you are traveling soon (or if you are like me at anytime of the year in south Florida) you will appreciate that!

We always stay at Hyatt Place. Get lunch at Duffy's in the Harbor Shops. Walk over to Publics and get on the Trolley to the beach. Looks like it comes every half hour. Just remember to catch the last one back before 5 P.M. or you will have to Uber or cab it back. The beach is only 2 miles ride.

Just remember that it no longer looks like the old yellow trolley.  Here's a current picture:

 

Good point about the timing.  There is now live tracking on the website and app.
