Named after the Everglades Plantation Company, the city of Plantation, Florida, is located just west of Fort Lauderdale. What the city lacks in a large number of attractions, it makes up for with an extensive park system and plethora of opportunity for outdoor recreation. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the two championship golf courses located in Plantation; the Plantation Preserve Golf Course and Club, and the Jacaranda Golf Club. The city also features a couple of fascinating museums; the Plantation Historical Museum and Schacknow Museum of Fine Arts. Visitors will enjoy short drives to popular, nearby attractions, including the Everglades National Park, Everglades and Francis S. Taylor Wildlife Management Area, and Big Cypress National Preserve.
