Park Map and Outing Details

Birch Stare Park is located 0.3 miles from the Hotel. Our Family outing will be located at South Picnic Area which is indicated as area 8 on the map. It is a 2 minute walk from the Water Taxi stop which is indicated as area 13 on the map and a 1 minute walk from the Parking Area. 

We will have a golfcart for any family members that need assistance getting from their cars, the boat or the hotel to the pavilion. 

Water Taxi Map & Activities

Friday, each member who wants to participate will receive a Water Taxi pass, granting access from our hotel (stop 7) to the Family Outing at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park (stop 8). As we embark on this journey, let's "Move As One" along Fort Lauderdale's waterways, basking in the radiant South Florida sunshine.

I know we all remember the Hay Ride in High Springs! Let's create new memories together!

Your Water Taxi pass is valid for the entire day, offering you the flexibility to enjoy the sights and sounds of Downtown Fort Lauderdale and its beaches.

As you explore, consider visiting some notable Water Taxi stops, each offering its own unique charm: 

Stop 1 - Riverside Hotel + Stranahan House is right in the heart of Downtown Ft. Lauderdale

Stop 2 - Shops + Restaurants at Las Olas

Stop 5 - Bahia Mar Located right on the Ft. Lauderdale Beach Sands.

Stop 6 - Swimming Hall of Fame also located right on the Ft. Lauderdale Beach Sands

We encourage all of you to take the day and explore together!
