Fort Lauderdale’s renowned Pier 66 has unveiled a distinctive new attraction: a large floating pickleball court positioned directly over the Intracoastal Waterway. This novel offering allows enthusiasts to engage in the rapidly growing sport while enjoying panoramic waterfront vistas.
The floating court has been characterized by participants as a “little bouncy,” with some comparing the experience to playing on an “adult bounce house.” The aim of this unique setup is to provide an entertaining activity for both families and resort guests, enhancing the overall experience at the expansive Pier 66 property. The resort itself spans 32 acres and features a variety of amenities, including multiple dining establishments, bars, and a high-end spa.
Prospective players can rent the floating court for hour-long sessions. Each rental accommodates up to four individuals and is priced at $60. The rental fee includes all necessary equipment such as paddles and balls, as well as chilled towels and bottled water for the players’ convenience.
