The Hollywood Beach Broadwalk in Hollywood, Florida offers a ~2.6 mile view of palm-tree laden white sand beach without the 40-story buildings and heavy traffic of its surrounding neighbors. The Hollywood Beach Florida Broadwalk was named one of the top ten nostalgic promenades by USA Today and one of the top six US boardwalks by the Travel Channel and is ideal for walking, biking, or rollerblading. Rentals are available if you don't bring your own wheels. smile A separate bike path gives Hollywood Beach bikers a mostly interrupted ride with the exception of the occasional walker who strays from the bricklined pedestrian walkway and doesn't realize the white sidewalk is a bike path. smile2 Joggers might prefer running in the morning when the crowds are lighter.
