Broward County's beaches are a driving force for tourism, the local economy, and environmental protections. Our 24 miles of beaches attract over 12 million visitors a year, contribute more than $6 billion annually to our local economy, add $1.4 billion to County property values, protect more than $7 billion in shorefront property, structures, and infrastructure, and provide an essential coastal ecosystem for numerous species including shorebirds, plants, beach infauna, and critical habitat for thousands of nesting sea turtles annually.

Our beaches are maintained through the Broward County Shoreline Protection Project (SPP), which is a partnership with the federal government to address coastal erosion in Broward County.
