Hollywood

Hollywood is home to more than 60 parks, seven golf courses, seven miles of pristine beaches, and the one-of-a-kind Hollywood Beach Broadwalk, a promenade that stretches nearly 2.5 miles along the Atlantic Ocean. Named one of America's Best Beach Boardwalks by Travel + Leisuremagazine, this brick-paved thoroughfare hosts pedestrians, joggers, bicyclists, rollerbladers, and millions of others every year. Dozens of eateries and inns line the Broadwalk and the promenade also features the Hollywood Beach Theatre, a children’s water playground at Charnow Park, and many other attractions. Hollywood Beach also offers dozens of luxury hotels and condominiums such as the Westin Diplomat and Trump Hollywood, with more planned for the area, including the Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort.

Students take advantage of the wide range of award-winning magnet programs including S.T.E.M.; the Cambridge Advanced International Certificate (AICE); Communication and Broadcasting; Military Academy; Health and Wellness; Montessori; and several others. All public schools located within the City of Hollywood are operated by the School Board of Broward County. Hollywood also has 13 private schools and a number of career schools. Nationally renowned higher learning institutions such as Barry University, Nova Southeastern University, and City College have research and educational facilities in Hollywood.
