Miami Beach is a south Florida island city and encompasses the wide sandy beaches of North Beach, Mid-Beach and most famously South Beach.
Travel a little further north and you will find the laid-back oceanfront community of Surfside and the affluent neighbourhood of Bal Harbour with its luxury hotels high-end shopping at Bal Harbour Shops.
Imagine the city in the spirited era of the 1930s and 1940s as you saunter past the pastel-hued art deco buildings in the Miami Beach Art Deco District.
Whilst you admire the architecture along Ocean Drive, you will begin to understand why the road is so well acclaimed. Stopping for lunch in one of the open-air cafes is a must, for the buzzing atmosphere and a glimpse of Gianni Versace's former oceanfront mansion.
Whether you are looking for a beach for family fun, a beach to unwind and bask in the sun on, a beach bar for the glamorous or a beach to experience parasailing and jet-skiing, Miami has it all. South Beach offers the Miami visitor a hedonistic experience while further north luxury hotels offer a haven where you can relax and soak up the Florida sunshine. A trip to Wynwood Walls will give you a culture and food fix for your Miami holiday.
Clearly influenced by the nearby Caribbean and Hispanic countries, Miami exudes a playful, exuberant but relaxed charm that will perfectly match your holiday spirit. The cuisine is also influenced by the international blend of cultures found in the city, from fusion Latin American restaurants to distinguished steakhouses.
The fun can carry on long into the night – the city’s world-famous nightlife attracts an affluent crowd from far and wide for its party atmosphere, extravagant cocktails and luxury decor.
