Pompano Beach is a popular pick for a girls’ getaway destination, and for good reason. With its laid-back vibe, you can spend your days booking a restorative spa treatment, heading off to explore Old Town, or snorkeling in the Atlantic. From intimate friend circles to bachelorette crews, this coastal escape offers the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. Make your trip memorable with this ultimate three-day itinerary for a fun weekend with the girls.
Day 1 – Arrive & Unwind by the Water
Morning – Get Settled & Check-In
Check into your home base for the weekend, whether it’s a waterfront resort or vacation rental. The Beachcomber Resort & Club offers exclusive beachfront access, while Sands Harbor Resort & Marina features Intracoastal views from each room and penthouse suites. Plus, you’re only a quick two-block stroll from the sand.
Afternoon – Relaxation & Waterfront Fun
Nothing says vacation like a spa session with your crew. Book rejuvenating facials and mani-pedis at Spa De La Vie while catching up with the ladies. When you’re ready for a change of pace, trade the spa chairs for the water and book a private charter or hop aboard the Pompano Beach Water Taxi. It’s a fun way to see the city from a different angle while enjoying time together on the water.
Afterward, keep the good vibes going with fish tacos and frozen drinks at Lucky Fish Beach Bar & Grill before catching some rays or taking a calming stroll along the shoreline.
Evening – Dinner with a View
Kick off the night with reservations at South Bar & Kitchen. Snag a table on the patio beneath the 100-year-old banyan tree, where live musicians set the mood. Expect Southern-inspired cuisine and standout craft cocktails, along with the kind of festive atmosphere that calls for toasts, laughter, and good conversation.
Day 2 – Indulge, Explore & Connect
Morning – Culture in Old Town
Caffeine first! Start your morning at How You Brewin Coffee Company, where the menu goes beyond classic coffee to include cold brews, specialty lattes, teas, smoothies, and fresh-baked pastries. Once everyone’s fueled up, make your way to Old Town and wander its revitalized streets, where colorful murals practically beg for a group photo.
Keep the creativity flowing with a visit to Bailey Contemporary Arts. This creative hub is home to artists and galleries, as well as fun, hands-on classes, such as ceramics, that make for a memorable shared experience.
Afternoon – Wellness at Soulful Steep
The Soulful Steep blends a salt cave, a tea café, and a boutique into one. Sink into zero-gravity chairs in the Himalayan salt room, then sip from a menu of over 60 organic teas. Browse the shelves for handmade soaps, candles, and crystals; the perfect gift ideas to take a piece of this zen experience home with you.
Then, head over to The Vault, a chic, 1920s-themed restaurant and bar built inside the old bank building, complete with the original vault still intact. From there, cap off the afternoon with a beach bike ride along the half-mile oceanfront promenade.
Evening – Sunset Dinner & Nightlife
Dress up for a coastal-inspired dinner at Beach House, rich with panoramic ocean views, a lively rooftop bar, and “Florribean” flavors. Another standout is Oceanic, perched right next to the iconic Fisher Family Pier, where fresh seafood takes center stage. Round out the night at Pier 6 Rooftop, with inventive cocktails and those same unforgettable seaside views.
Day 3 – Adventure & Farewell
Morning – Dive In or Slow Down
The city isn’t called the “Wreck Capital“ of Florida for nothing! Grab your swimsuits for an adventure at Shipwreck Park, where you can snorkel near sunken ships like the Lady Luck and Okinawa, teeming with marine life. Prefer staying above water? Kayak or paddleboard the calm Intracoastal waters where a dolphin or manatee might make a cameo appearance.
If you and your besties would rather keep the last morning calm, join a Yoga with Juliana class for gentle movement, meditation, and relaxation before heading home.
Afternoon – Farewell Brunch
Wrap up the weekend with a laid-back brunch at The Foundry, a favorite known for its bottomless brunch, hearty burgers, and fresh seafood. It’s a lively spot where everyone can relax over coffee and a mix of classic and seaside specialties. Or go all out at Amy’s French Bakery & Bistro, named one of Yelp’s Top 100 Places to Eat in the U.S., where French toast, fluffy omelets, and mimosas are the perfect send-off.
As you raise a glass, celebrate the memories made and the laughter shared throughout the weekend. Pompano Beach offers your group the freedom to mix pampering with adventure, all set against a backdrop of coastal charm. Start planning your girls’ getaway now and make it a tradition worth toasting year after year.
