Over the past century, Greater Fort Lauderdale has transformed from farmlands into one of the most dynamic destinations in the country—where you’ll find both gold-sand shores and swamplands, world-class museums and nature parks, and a melting pot of cuisines and cultures. With more than 170 countries represented, diversity is one of Greater Fort Lauderdale’s strengths—and part of why the area is so popular for multicultural travel. In the city of Plantation, Caribbean culture is celebrated and preserved at Island SPACE, a museum that acts as an archive and exhibition space to share the history and heritage of people from the Caribbean. Greater Fort Lauderdale’s diverse spirit even extends to sports like cricket, a national sport in countries like England, Jamaica, Barbados and Grenada. The 110-acre Central Broward Regional Park and Central Broward Stadium features two cricket fields and was the first in the country to receive certification by the International Cricket Council (ICC) to be able to host international matches.
