If you visit Pompano, there’s plenty to do. The pier is a must-see, and I already walked the planks here: https://sharonwagnerbooks.com/pompano-beach-pier/ And don’t miss the Bonnet House and its beautiful gardens https://sharonwagnerbooks.com/bonnet-house-museum-gardens/ in nearby Fort Lauderdale. I also posted about an old school attraction called Flamingo Gardens recently, full of peacocks, flamingos, and fun.
Of course, there’s a beach!
But if you follow my feet, you’ll see we also visited Gumbo Limbo Nature Center and spent time pounding the pavement towards the happy hour and eats at Baresco. (not shown) The funniest thing that happened to us was a baby opossum visiting our hotel patio. Only in Pompano!







Yum, look at that salad!

Hello Sharon,
Beautiful photos, the sky images are gorgeous. I love the fish collage from the nature center.
The turtle and the dove, the beach and lighthouse are all wonderful.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post.
Take care, enjoy your day and the week ahead.
I hope the salad was left for the turtle. Otherwise, I wonder at the wildlife in that area. They are relentless 😉
Fantastic! You’ve perfectly captured the charm of Pompano Beach.
Looks like a lovely place to visit. Enjoy your week. I am joining you at Mosaic Monday. We are hoping to go to some beaches very soon!
A wonderful view in your journey. I enjoyed reading very much, admire your special view of details.
Thank you for sharing at

The sunset shots are magic! #TravelTuesday
Dear Sharon,
what a fantastic close-up of the pelican’s head – such an impressive bird! You’re once again sharing beautiful photos and stories – from Pompano to pigeons, turtles, and more… and those sunsets are absolutely dreamy! 🌅🕊️🐢
Warm greetings from Austria and a happy start into August,
Traude

Looks like lots of fun to me!! I love the big turtles and all the fish and of course the beach!!
I wonder what that turtle thought about the free salad to go? Interesting captures.
