The horseback lifestyle is alive and well in Southwest Ranches, to the point that there’s a public park geared towards equestrian activities. On ten acres, Sunshine Ranches Equestrian Park includes a series of trails, troughs, washing areas, pens, and an arena. Something that blew me away here was the Equestrian Oasis, an artist-designed area where...
One exquisite spot adjacent to Southwest Ranches is this unforgettable botanical garden and wildlife sanctuary. On a 60-acre property, founded as a couple’s weekend home on the edge of the Everglades in the 1920s, you’ll find yourself in a tropical oasis. Floyd L. and Jane Wray planted an astonishing array of tropical and subtropical plants from ar...
Another of the natural areas abutting Southwest Ranches is 450 acres of wetlands in the care of Pembroke Pines. Like a lot of the local nature Chapel Trail Nature Preserve would be impassable on foot without a boardwalk. I adore this feature, zigzagging for more than 1,600 feet through the marshland. There are interpretive signs as you go, and it’s...
Laced with water and sitting next to the Pembroke Lakes Mall, this Broward County Park offers a galaxy of recreation in a picturesque setting. I probably won’t be able to squeeze in everything you can do at C.B. Smith Park. Anyway, to begin with there’s a campground, with 70+ fully-equipped RV sites. Then there’s Paradise Cove, a waterpark with a l...
With dozens of mostly upmarket stores on palm-lined sidewalks, this lifestyle center opened in 2007 in Pembroke Pines.

So I can give you an idea of the scene here, you’ve got the likes of Barnes & Noble, Ann Taylor, a Nike Fac...
On the west side of Flamingo Gardens there’s a 160-pocket of South Florida nature at a stunning elevated oak hammock. I was thrilled to learn that until the 20th century Long Key was in fact a chain of islands, ensconced in the Everglades’ wetlands. As well as enchanting nature, this environment also has great historical and archeological value. Fo...
I’m not exaggerating when I say that the public parks around Southwest Ranches are among the best I’ve seen. That applies to Tree Tops Park a couple of minutes away in Davie. In a breathtaking oak hammock and restored freshwater marsh, this is another superb place to ride your horse. An observation tower here lifts you up to appreciate the canopy, ...
For some people, the sight of the boundless spread of water and sawgrass from the Everglades Holiday Park will inspire a need for adventure. The South Florida Water Management maintains a whole matrix of arrow-straight trails here. These are atop the levees that manage the waterflow in the Everglades, and grant you some amazing views. As I’m sure y...
Driving along Griffin Road, my eye is often caught by this spectacular Shiva temple, which was recently expanded. This magnificent building held its first services in 1998, and is a regular place of worship for more than 1,000 people. It is open daily for people of the Hindu faith to perform pujas, and provides a host of educational classes, includ...
