Roads and typical drive time
Most drivers take I-95 south from the airport, exit at Hollywood Boulevard, and head east to the beach. US-1/Federal Highway south is a common alternate, especially when I-95 is slow. Off-peak trips can take as little as 20 minutes. Weekend beach traffic and events on the Broadwalk extend the final few blocks.
Traffic reality and when to add buffer
Hollywood Boulevard east of US-1 backs up on weekends and holidays. The Hollywood Beach Broadwalk draws heavy foot traffic, especially on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Add 15 minutes if you are traveling mid-day on a weekend. Evening events at the bandshell and Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort can also slow drop-offs along A1A.
Vehicle options and pricing
Sedan transfers from FLL to Hollywood Beach start at $130. SUVs start at $160 and are helpful for families with strollers or beach equipment. Larger vehicles are available if you are traveling with a group. Rates are point-to-point starting prices.
Who books this route
Vacationers, cruise travelers, and locals headed to the beach book this route regularly. The Hollywood Beach Broadwalk is a 2.5-mile paved promenade along the ocean. Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort at 1111 N Ocean Drive opened in 2015 and is one of the tallest buildings on the beach.
