ALONG FLORIDA’S A1A BEACHFRONT BOULEVARD AT NIGHT

Nighttime at Fort Lauderdale Beach paints a cosmic canvas of vibrant colors. The sky, with its stars, planets, and Milky Way, stretches from a dark horizon to shimmering ribbons of light overhead.

The beach is bathed in silvery moonlight. You see the lights of planes taking off and landing. Ephemeral contrails streak across the sky. Cars moving along the beachfront illuminate the palm trees and swaying sea oats. Ships, distant lights in a dark sea, traverse north and south.

The waves, pushed by gale wind, crash against the shore, a rhythm, an ambient soundtrack to the evening. The sound is from cars and planes, but mostly from wind and waves.

You take a deep breath and close your eyes, savoring the cosmic ambiance of an urban coast at night. Stars twinkle above. The moon glows. The soft and warm sand invites you to stroll barefoot. Planes, ships, and cars pass by.

It is an experience of connecting with a universe of beauty and awe.
