A boater's community on the canals of Pompano Beach
Snug Harbor is a gateway to canalside living in Pompano Beach. Alongside its growing city, less than 10 miles north of Fort Lauderdale, the neighborhood has gotten significant attention from developers in recent years. New townhouses have sprung up on its waterfront, and many renovated midcentury houses hold steady at around $1 million. Despite new neighborhood developments — and the nearby growth of Downtown Pompano’s arts scene — the neighborhood maintains old-school Florida charm. It remains a small boater’s community at its heart.
In Snug Harbor, residents can dock their boats right at home.

Midcentury ranches and new-construction townhouses
Waterfront homes are always in demand in sunny South Florida, but “the prices [in Snug Harbor] are kept down a hair by the single fixed bridge between the neighborhood and the Intracoastal Waterway,” says Christine Balistreri Van Buskirk, a local Realtor with Balistreri Real Estate who has more than 17 years of experience. While it’s totally possible — and popular — to ride from the closest canal to the Intracoastal Waterway to the blue water, Federal Highway’s fixed bridge limits the size of boat one can use. Condos needing some TLC start at around $150,000. Move-in-ready waterfront units price out in the high $400,000s. Inland new-construction townhouses range from $430,000 to $600,000. Waterfront townhouses fall between $700,000 and just over $1 million. As for single-family homes, Snug Harbor has a variety of midcentury ranch-style houses. "More homes here are remodeled than not, so you'll see price differences depending on that,” Van Buskirk says. Houses on the canals range from $950,000 to almost $2 million. Landlocked ranches range from the high $600,000s to the mid $900,000s.

Hurricane season in Pompano Beach
The city hosts annual hurricane season kickoff events where residents can hear predictions and learn essential preparedness information. Hurricane season ranges from June 1st to November 30th.

A longtime local Realtor, Dawne Richards with KW Commercial, recommends investing in flood insurance. “Flooding can vary from street to street. There are streets that always flood, and some never do… With what’s been happening in the last few years, flood insurance is a huge factor everywhere now.”
