South Beach
Found between 1st and 25th street on Miami Beach, South Beach is the busiest and most famous in Miami.
South Beach is one of the most fashionable places in the city, both to see an be seen, and it's always full of both locals and tourists looking for a good time.
South Beach is the stereotype that we all think of when we picture Miami: an image of a thousand films and TV series, of vice and gym-toned bodies with the infinite blue of the sea as a backdrop.
South Beach is so popular for its energy, nightlife and lifestyle. Here, fashion and going topless (not permitted on the other Miami beaches), are the order of the day.
This is a long beach of fine white sand and shallow waters, meaning you can't surf on South Beach.
Lummus Park
Between 5th and 15th street, there's an area known as Lummus Park. This is among the most happening areas of South Beach, where perhaps you can take in a volleyball game, wander the white sand by the shore or have a drink in one of Ocean Drive's cafés. It's common to find painters at work on the walkway that runs along the beach.
A Must-See in Miami
This is one of the best-known beaches in Florida, and we recommend that you head to South Beach during the day to enjoy its beaches and also at night, where it's a melting pot of people looking for fun.
To the South of Ocean Drive you can find Nikki Beach, one of the most famous clubs in the world, and especially lively on Sundays.
