Things To Do In Miami

By April 14, 2024April 15th, 2024No Comments

1. Lummus Park, South Beach – Outdoor Park

Lummus Park is located in South Beach, and I highly recommend renting a bicycle and strolling through it. After the stroll, you can visit the beach or one of the hundreds of restaurants1

2. Wynwood – Neighborhood 

I must be honest: a couple of years ago, Wynwood was my #1 neighborhood to recommend to people visiting Miami, but not anymore. I still think it’s worth visiting; you can find delicious restaurants, edgy stores and cool murals, but it can get messy and packed if you visit late on the weekends.

I really recommend taking an Uber or Lyft because the parking can be very limited.

3. Vizcaya Museum & Gardens – Museum

The museum is the former villa and estate of businessman James Deering, located near Coconut Grove. You can visit the villa, now a museum, and the fantastic gardens.

Tickets per adult are $25.

4. Bayside Marketplace – Outdoor Shopping Center
