We are located 2 miles from the gorgeous Atlantic Ocean at Pompano Beach. There's a pier named the Fisher Pier which is the 'heart' of Pompano Beach. There are 3 restaurants right on the beach on either side of the Pier, our favorite is Lucky Fish Grill. It's a giant chikihut! There are fountains and shops & refreshments, a very nice beach 5 minutes East on Atlantic Blvd. There are outdoor Yoga classes every Sunday morning on the beach. There are also near-by malls, drugstores, coffee shops and restaurants. We are walkable distance from a 5-mile bike trail which circles the Pompano AirPark, where the Good Year Blimp, Airport and Golf Course are located. We live in Historic 'Old Pompano'. There are many castle-like homes from the 1920's on our block. The famous Sample-McDougald Home was relocated to the corner of NE 5th Avenue & NE 10th Street about ten years ago for preservation. Our Street name was recently renamed 'Pioneer Drive', but is still NE 5th Avenue. The street sign has both Pioneer Drive and NE 5th Avenue. We live in a school zone, so take caution if traveling between 7:00 and 8:30 am and 2:00 and 4:30 pm. on school days.
