OK, you are going on a cruise, and in Ft. Lauderdale the day before you sale. For a real treat in every respect, head to the Wreck Bar at the B Ocean Resort. First consideraton is the B Ocean is more friendly to cigar smokers than just about any other place you can visit or stay.
During the 50’s the Wreck was a hangout for legends like Monroe and DiMagio. Keeping that same nautical feel, they added a pool for mermaid and mermen shows which run the fin from family friendly to starting a family.
In short, there is no bad seat in the house, and the food and drinks are as good as the shows. While your new aqua friends swim, dart and amaze, then nothing like the Seafood Tower and a Mai Tai.
If day time food is your direction, then Mermaids and Mimosas on the weekend give you a very different entertainment/food/beverage trifecta!
Note: Crusing is gaining steam and you will need a place to stay and something to do before your trip!
