Drive A1A In Fort Lauderdale - Sit Back Sunday GoPro Cruise
Cruising in our Dodge Challenger R/T along A1A in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This clip takes us from the new runway underpass of the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport (where US1 merges with A1A).
From there, we pass by the 17th Street Bridge which spans the Intracoastal Waterway, right beside Port Everglades - the cruise port for many cruise ships. Beyond that, we'll pass by the main 'strip' of Fort Lauderdale Beach. This is where many ocean front hotels and restaurants are located.

John U Lloyd Mooring Buoy
After stopping be a near shore reef and finding it swarming in Moon jellyfish with a very strong current we headed out to one of the mooring buoys that Florida maintains along the deeper reefs.
We had our full body rash guards on so the Moon jellyfish didn't bother us but this reef is a bit too deep for snorkeling so we looked around but didn't stay long and headed for a more shallow reef.

THOUSANDS OF SHARKS OFF FLORIDA COAST!!! (the annual blacktip migration)
We found the blacktip shark migration in South Florida and there were soooooooo many sharks. It was incredible! The Blacktip Shark migration is the largest coastal migration in the United States. These sharks are generally not aggressive towards bathers at the beach.

Fort Lauderdale, New River, Yachtastrophy!
The poor captain in the yacht seemed like either the manuvering gear was malfunctioning or he had or was about to run agound. Add to that a gigantic sightseeing boat approaching plus a few smaller boats and we have an interesting water dance about to occur. When the yacht finally passed, the captain looked quite relieved.
