The Fort Lauderdale Museum of Discovery and Science shows just how much fun science can be. This is amazing for fun for the entire family, and conveniently located right in Downtown. Focusing on the local environment, displays include the Everglades Airboat Adventure, a real coral reef with sea creatures and tropical fish and a replica of an oak forest complete with mosses, lichens, and air plants that grow without soil. And here you won't have to wait for a hurricane to blow in to feel its incredible force. Visitors are in awe as they experience hurricane force winds in the Storm Center – all very safely!
