Stroller friendly
Sunrise to sunset; the small lot fills early at weekends
A paved path and grassy berm running alongside the south runway at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International, raised just enough for an unobstructed view. Planes pass side-on and low every few minutes. Small free lot, no restrooms.
Why kids love it
A plane every few minutes holds a two-year-old's attention with no admission, no queue and no commitment, and there is open grass to run on between takeoffs.

Safety notes
- ! Check slides & equipment for heat — Florida sun makes them burn-hot fast
- ! Keep eyes on water features and ponds
- ! Get ear defenders on BEFORE the takeoff roll - departure noise arrives suddenly and genuinely hurts small ears
- ! No restrooms on site - plan the stop around that
- ! Hold hands in the lot; S Perimeter Rd traffic is unfenced
