Pompano Beach, Beachfront city in Broward County, Florida, United States.
The city extends along three miles of Atlantic coastline, featuring white sand beaches intersected by the Intracoastal Waterway near Fort Lauderdale.
Railway employees George Butler and Frank Sheen established the first permanent settlement in 1896, when the initial train arrived at the location.
The Pompano Beach Seafood Festival brings together local fishermen, chefs, and residents to celebrate the maritime heritage of the Florida coast.
The Green Market operates twice monthly throughout the year, providing residents access to fresh produce, artisanal goods, and local food products.
The city derives its name from the Florida pompano fish, which continues to inhabit the local waters and represents a prized catch for anglers.
