Beautiful park at the very end of South Beach. Savor a mojito at Smith & Wollinsky & watch cruise ships leave the port. Pier has beautify views of Miami Beach. Great place for running & sunset viewing. Located at the southern end of Miami Beach is a small stretch of sand known as South Beach. This section of fronts the ocean in the neighborhood of the same name. Often packed in summer, this is the most popular beach in Miami - a place to see and be seen, but also a place to swim and enjoy the shallow waters, escape the heat, and soak up the sun. Head to the Lighthouse on Wednesday & Sunday afternoons to check out the acro yoga jam that's very popular by locals. Great place to watch sunsets with the Miami Skyline.

It’s past the popular “Boater’s Grill” restaurant at a prime corner where marina & Biscayne Bay meet. Amazing to watch the sunset! Check out the time & go when it’s not a prime time as parking is limited & you may need to walk a lot. Nice to head to the beach early, check out the beautiful park, take an extra pair of clothes on top of a bathing suit & beach gear, eat at either the cafeteria by the beach or boater’s grill & then go for a drink & appetizer to enjoy the sunset
