1101 Biscayne BlvdSouth Beach, the quintessential Miami experience, is a public beach that's free and open to everyone. It's also easily accessible by foot, though the most scenic part is the southernmost section, via Lummus Park, which runs along Ocean Drive from 5th to 15th streets. Because it's been used as a backdrop for just about every movie and TV show set in Miami, you'll feel that everything on South Beach looks familiar, including the kiosks where you can rent lounge chairs and umbrellas. Even if you’re not big on sitting in the sun, it’s worth taking a stroll up or down the beach to see what all the fuss is about. If you wait until the late afternoon (around 4 p.m.) the crowds will have thinned out a bit.

A 120-year-old majestic oak tree serves as the focal point of this funky shopping destination just north of the Design District. The Bodhi "wish tree," as it’s called, is based on a Buddhist tradition of designating a tree to be used as the object of wishes and offerings. In addition to the tree, you’ll find gardens and walkways that connect the businesses and micro-boutiques that make up the neighborhood. It's free to visit, and offers a peaceful respite from Miami's sometimes frenetic urban core.

THis is one of my most favorite places in Miami....amazing nature trail with the ocean surrounding you !! If you find yourself in Key Biscayne, Crandon Park is one of the most beautiful, relaxing places you could visit. Besides the usual beach access and green fields, you’ll find lots of wildlife roaming around, like peacocks, iguanas, rabbits, and even a few crocodiles.

Miami Design District
Wynwood Art District
By day and into early evening, Brickell City Centre draws shoppers to its upscale stores, among them Saks Fifth Avenue and Kendra Scott. A walkway extends over South Miami Avenue to link the multi-story shopping complex, complete with underground parking. Stop on the walkway and look north at the high rises on the other side of the river. Shopping with a view is just one of the perks. This is the place to head if you need something swanky to wear at night. And it’s Miami, so swanky may also mean skimpy. The heat does that to a reveler.
Brickell City Centre is home to two amazing food halls, both with various stations offering Italian cuisine: Casa Tua Cucina and Luna Park.
Just a few blocks south of Brickell Centre is Mary Brickell Village, named after the matriarch of one of the families that founded Miami in the late 1800s. How did Mrs. Brickell get to South Florida from Cleveland even before air conditioning brought the masses? Just like so many transplants that came after her, she was tired of the snowy, dreary weather up north. The tropical breezes and exotic flora beckoned.
Mary Brickell Village is a tangle of shops, restaurants and drinking establishments, some with live music. It’s may not be quite as upscale as Brickell City Centre but it feels more Miami because the tropical weather permeates the outdoor complex.
A favorite spot for young and a wee bit older is the curiously named restaurant and lounge Dolores But You Can Call Me Lolita across the street from Mary Brickell. Upstairs, that would be the Dolores part, is a lushly appointed restaurant in Brickell with outdoor and indoor dining. The dimly lit dining room has romantic window tables and bigger tables for larger groups.
That’s the thing about Miami. You can hardly go to any restaurant in Brickell District without spying a family gathering that includes people of all ages. The menu, like the city itself, is a fusion of flavors that meld beautifully. Don’t leave without sampling the corn bread accompanied with an ice cream scoop of butter melting into the warm Southern treat served in a cast-iron skillet. Gazpacho is tasty, too, as is the porcini mushroom tortellini.
Head downstairs to Lolita where the outdoor seating area is full of young people toasting the good life. TVs show the sporting event of the day and often that is soccer. Sometimes the TVs compete with DJs and dancing. Waiters deliver order after order of Southern California tacos to the low lounge tables.
There’s really not much 1920s about Dolores/Lolita or Miami’s hot and hip Brickell District these days. Except for maybe the roaring part.

The South of Fifth neighborhood is home to one of the top parks in North America. South Pointe Park is a mesmerizing seventeen-acre parcel of land located at the most southern tip of South Beach, with a spectacular view of the Miami Beach's shoreline, Port Miami's gigantic cruise ships across the channel, and Downtown Miami across Biscayne Bay. The park is filled with family-friendly walking tracks and splash parks and playgrounds for kids to enjoy. The park has a scenic observation deck, numerous bark parks for dogs, restrooms, a food park, and the recently built granite water fountains and yes, with Fuschia glowing water at night. Artfully designed the park features numerous sculptures with the most recognizable being the Obstinate Lighthouse designed by Tobias Rehberger. The lighthouse a signature beacon as ships pass through Government Cut and out to the Atlantic Ocean.
And of course, it's all about the Views - where you will enjoy 360 degrees of jaw-dropping views of the Atlantic Ocean, Fisher Island, Biscayne Bay, and Downtown Miami. The park is free to access, and it is always open from morning to evening. If you’re on holiday here in South of Fifth, consider renting a Citi Bike for a small fee at several locations throughout the park. It’s the best way to experience the panoramic views.
