Miami Beach Description
Touting itself as the "World's Playground," Miami Beach's combination of island and metropolitan life merge to make it a draw for kids, adults, singles, and families alike. Its Art Deco architecture, high fashion, and world-class nightclubs create a sophisticated backdrop for the natural highlight: seven miles of beach and turquoise surf. There's plenty to do here without ever leaving the beach, but older kids especially will appreciate the city's modern, youthful vibe. Other nearby points of interest include the Holocaust Memorial, Miami Beach Botanical Garden, Flagler Monument Island, Versace Mansion (Casa Casuarina), Wolfsonian-FIU Museum, and Ocean Drive — the Art Deco district.
Kid Tips

Planning Notes
- Hit Lincoln Road. It's known for its terrific outdoor dining, bicycling, rollerblading, and shopping. Rent some bikes and take in the eye candy.
