Why is it Called Fort Liquordale?

While many tend to believe that this nickname simply came from years of spring breakers flocking to the beach and plenty of tourists from today, there is actually a more elaborate and historical reason the city is referred to as Fort Liquordale— bootlegging during prohibition. While alcohol remained illegal in the United States for 13 years, South Florida had the big advantage of being located in close proximity to the Bahamas. This made Fort Lauderdale the perfect base for importing illegal alcohol (also known as bootlegging or rum-running) and now the city is rich with that history. There are a number of interesting bootlegging stories from the era and your expert tour guide will be sure to fill you in!
