Miami Things to Do

While Miami has much to offer visitors, sometimes you just need a change of scenery. Luckily, there are many worthwhile destinations accessible from Miami. To help you plan the perfect day trip, here are some suggestions.

Those looking for an interesting experience in Miami, Florida, may want to head to the Miami Design District. While once an area of low-rise warehouses victim to urban decay, local Craig Robins of Dacra as well as L Real Estate recognized the neighborhood’s potential and spearheaded a campaign to convert these buildings into vibrant galleries, upscale boutiques and innovative restaurants.

While Miami also gets a lot of hype for being a wild party destination, the city actually has much to offer families, especially in terms of beaches. Matheson Hammock Park Beach is a tranquil beach with calm waters. The beach features clean bathrooms, a man-made lagoon that is fed by the Biscayne Bay which is also safe for little ones.

If your vision of Miami is just bikinis and martinis, you haven’t seen the city during Christmastime, when it’s as magical, festive, and special as anywhere with snow or pine trees! Here are some ways to celebrate the holidays, Miami-style:

A girls-only trip can come in all shapes and sizes these days – an extended birthday vacation, a quick sorority reunion, or even just a long weekend to take a break from work. The truth is, Miami has the right kind of partying style for any occasion, and the best occasion of all just might be the coveted bachelorette party.

Florida (Miami in particular) is home to the largest artificial reef program in the world. Not only is this great news for local marine life (especially endangered species), but it means that divers have some fun places to explore while observing some fabulous tropical wildlife.
