Sightseeing

Neighborhood Fish Farm
12150 SW 45th St

The trendiest beach in Miami ! Things to be aware of: Traffic, expensive parking, and crowded venues. Things to enjoy: The view, the beach, a walk along the pier and Ocean Drive ! It's East of here. I recommend using Google maps or Waze to find the best route and parking. "ParkMobile" is a Parking app that's needed on your smart phone, if you decide to park on the street, rather than a parking garage (better value).

A 36 minute drive West, takes you to the Shark Valley Observation Tower, which allows you to see the Everglades National Park from a bird's eye view. There are trams and trails to see birds, fish, and gators.

A trendy neighborhood, North East of here. Interesting restaurants, high-end boutiques, some tourist sites as well. I recommend going in daytime, as there have been some problems lately with late-night events.

Historic neighborhood, were I grew up. It offers several different restaurants of various cultures, mostly Latin-American. Buy a cigar, watch people playing dominoes, have a 'cafecito' and walk down sw 8th street to experience it all. Some of my favorites: Cuban Memorial Boulevard park on SW 13th ST. Ball & Chain is a famous local bar that offers live music and dance shows on certain nights.
