Miami Beach is a coastal tourist hotspot in Miami-Dade County, Florida, USA. The municipality is built on the natural and man-made barrier islands between the Atlantic Ocean and the Bay of Biscay, the latter of which divides the Beach from the mainland city of Miami. 

The fastest way to get to Miami Beach from Miami International Airport is by cab, express bus service, or car rental.

As soon as you cross the bridge to Miami Beach, you will know very easily that there is a lot to see and do. 

Like the traffic and the heat of this place, the parties never end. You can find yourself in a pub at midday, and hit a happy hour at 5 pm, go to a live performance at 9 pm, hit a nightclub at midnight, then wind up in a nightclub at 3 am.

There are relaxed lounges, such as the famed Purdy Lounge and the poolside, celebrity-filled haunts like the Skybar Miami Beach Shore Club. Or you could have a party right on the sand at a spot like Nikki Beach for some nightlife under the stars, loving the warm environment of the Magic City. 

Miami Beach is a vibrant center of art and entertainment, as evidenced by its robust Art Deco background and brightly colored architecture. Host to the world-famous Art Basel Miami Beach and with a landscape guaranteed to inspire imagination, this landmark destination boasts everything from symphony orchestra and art-inspired hotels to Art Deco's haunts, historic museums, renowned art festivals, resident artists, and more.

Strip down and visit one of the only clothing-optional and most popular beaches in the United States, the famed Haulover Beach. Commonly referred to as one of the best nude beaches in the world, this 99-acre beach includes various tennis courts, a golf course, as well as several hotels within walking distance, so there's plenty to do. Or rent some chairs and mingle with the singles at South Beach's 12th Street Beach, Miami's most popular gay beach, mainly made up of men, a few ladies, and interested visitors looking to watch. Only search for the rainbow flags on the lifeguard stations.

Drop by a funky gift shop in The Wolfsonian, a seven-story museum that reflects on the power of nature in the persuasiveness of art. Or pick up one-of-a-kind vintage memorabilia from Miami at the Lincoln Road Antique and Collectible Market. Spend a quiet afternoon at Books & Books, an independent bookshop with everything from retro hardcovers and poetry and niche magazines.

Hotels and Spas are the finest in Miami Beach. Relax and unwind in the creative studio space at Mondrian Hotel, planned to be a futuristic re-imagining of Sleeping Beauty's Palace. Visit the SLS Hotel, the tallest art deco building in South Beach, renovated and refurbished from its original 1939 condition into a towering, glittering palace of gorgeous bars and restaurants. You might choose an oceanfront view of Eden Roc, offering poolside cabanas in their four pools.

If you want to meet new friends, we recommend going to the Miami Beach Hostel, providing dorm-style, apartment, and private rooms all with a retro theme, this hostel is situated just a block from the beach and provides live music in the lounge and free meals.

If you're looking for a way to get to all the sights of Miami Beach, then get on a Miami Beach Duck Tour. In a vehicle that takes you by land and sea, this tour offers a variety of excursions that provide stunning views of local architecture, the residences of the rich and famous, and some history lessons on the region narrated by engaging tour guides who all have experience in comedy and entertainment.
