Things to see and do in Miami

Miami’s year-round sunshine and pristine coastline is perfect for hanging out on the beach. The white sand of Miami Beach stretches for 12 miles and is a great place to go jogging or just chill out. And at the southernmost tip of Miami you’ll find the famous South Beach, where warm seas and sand meet a vibrant cultural and social scene.

As well as sunbathing, there are plenty of sports to try on active holidays in Miami. Golfers will be impressed by the variety of world-class golf courses and beach volleyball, cycling and tennis are all available.

With the warm sea on your doorstep, you’re sure to want to try some water sports as well. The pros can hire a boat and sail on the clear waters of Biscayne Bay, and for something a bit different, take a guided fishing trip and hunt for snapper and marlin. Snorkelling or diving in the tropical waters is a must, with a vibrant coral reef full of marine life just waiting to be explored.

Stroll along the shopping promenades of Miami in the beautiful weather, and explore the elegant shopping malls and unique boutiques the city has to offer. A visit to South Beach gives you the chance to discover the Art Deco architecture and soak up the artistic vibe. As well as the Art Centre of South Florida, South Beach is the home of the Wolfsonian Museum of Art and Design, housed in a Spanish mission-style building. Explore the Little Havana area of Miami to get a taste for the Latin vibe.

You’ll find restaurants to suit every taste in Miami: from fine-dining to fast food, pizzerias to sushi bars. Enjoy a candle-lit dinner of fresh seafood, and sample affordable and authentic Cuban meals in Little Havana. As well as Latin and American flavours, Miami offers every kind of cuisine you could want.

Miami is just alive at night as it is during the day, and South Beach is the place to be seen in the evening, with plenty of trendy bars and nightclubs to visit. Dance to Latin beats and Salsa rhythms while sipping mojitos in Little Havana, where a distinctly Hispanic flavour spices up the night. For a more relaxed, bohemian vibe, head to Coconut Grove where you can take your pick from upscale hotspots and laid back tiki bars.
