Welcome to Pompano Beach: The Heart of Florida’s Gold Coast Strategically nestled between Miami and Palm Beach, Pompano Beach spans over 25 square miles in northern Broward County and offers a perfect blend of sun, sea, and adventure. Known for its stunning beaches, vibrant boating scene, and offshore coral reef teeming with dive sites and shipwrecks, Pompano Beach is a paradise for anglers and families alike. Our redeveloped beachside fishing village features a 1,000-foot-long fishing pier, world-class dining, shopping, playgrounds, grills, and picnic areas. The warm, inviting waters are abundant with pompano, the tropical game fish that gives the city its name. Just north, the historic Hillsboro Lighthouse stands guard over the Hillsboro Inlet, a gateway to the Intracoastal Waterway. With a year-round population of over 101,400 that swells to more than 150,000 during the peak season, Pompano Beach is a vibrant community where part-time residents return to enjoy the sunny weather.
