Hillsboro Beach

Hillsboro Beach is only three miles long and 900 feet wide, yet it's pure beach. Glistening water meets your eye everywhere you look as you stand on a peninsula between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. Take Hillsboro Mile, the only road that runs through town, and you'll find multiple places to unwind for the day at what is arguably Broward Countys most relaxing beach. 

Hillsboro Beach has no commercial properties, so activities to do include getting in touch with nature and learning about the history of this charming beach community. 

If you take a moment to look around the peaceful sands, you could just spot a sea turtle's nest. Although sea turtle nests can be discovered on many Broward County beaches, Hillsboro Beach is proud to have one of the greatest densities of sea turtle nests per mile on the East Coast of Florida. Check visit the Hillsboro Lighthouse on the peninsula's southern end for more beach fun. Since its inception in 1907, the 138-foot tall lighthouse has served as a beacon of light for the community. 

Fort Lauderdale is only approximately 20 miles south, while Boca Raton is only about 16 miles north. This upscale village is a peaceful and lovely place to call home.
