Ft. Lauderdale: Transportation

Can someone advice how much would be a taxi ride from the FLL airport to the beach area (Las Olas Blvd & beach). Or are there any shuttles, fast buses?
Thanks!

I'd estimate $10 to $15.

If you're staying at a hotel with a shuttle, then you might be able to do it for free.

The "fast" bus from the airport will take you to the central terminal downtown. You are better off in a taxi IMO which will undoubtedly use Route 1 and then Las Olas Blvd. The only thing that could "go wrong" would be if the bridge on Las Olas over the ICW is UP so you can sit and wait and watch the meter climb.

I took a taxi from the airport to downtown FLL earlier this week and it was $18 plus tip. There is a $2 surcharge when leaving from the airport so it is usually less on the return trip. It's probably a little more expensive when going to the beach as that is a longer trip than going downtown.

Thank you all!
My hotel somehow does not have a shuttle bus.
