Las Olas is not a city, nor a town—it is a bridge, a boulevard, and one of the most beautiful areas in Fort Lauderdale and Broward County , Florida . Las Olas was born in 1917, as a bridge connecting Fort Lauderdale to the beach, which was then accessible to both tourists and residents only by boat. This first road to the ocean was called “Las Olas,” which means “the waves” in Spanish.

It started out as a dirt road then. But today, Las Olas is a major thoroughfare, and a charming one at that. All tourists who go to Fort Lauderdale visit Las Olas for its elegance. Las Olas offers people the finer things in life, from fashion boutiques to art galleries, to gourmet restaurants and sidewalk cafes, to clubs and other entertainment venues—and the Fort Lauderdale beach, of course.

Las Olas houses some of the most beautiful luxury homes in the Fort Lauderdale area. There are also newly constructed condominiums, historic houses, and other waterfront residences available to people who are willing to pay for the cost of elegant real estate.
