In partnership with the City of Fort Lauderdale, Las Olas Marina represents the culmination of over $130 million in public amenity enhancements along the Las Olas Corridor, which connects pedestrians to the ocean. Additionally, the marina will contribute to the city’s environmental resilience by restoring 3 acres to water and natural habitat, and implementing seawall improvements to guard against rising sea levels. It will also serve as a dynamic economic engine, generating hundreds of millions of dollars annually and creating new jobs across various sectors for the local community.
 
Developed by Suntex Marinas—one of the nation’s leading marina operators with locations across Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Texas, Tennessee, and Virginia—Las Olas Marina promises to be a landmark in the world of maritime luxury.
