Where I would tell you to go, what i would suggest you do if you are here and interested in more than the beach
Lincoln Road Miami Beach
If you are visiting from out of town, and staying out on Miami Beach then you will need to take an evening stroll on Lincoln Road. Best to go later on a Friday or Saturday night when the full effect can be enjoyed, or Sunday for brunch and the farmers market. But the real attraction on Lincoln road is the people watching. Tourists galore but mixd in are the locals walking their dogs and each other. Perhaps do a little shopping and grab an ice cream.
Clyde Butcher/Tamiami trail
Another nice car ride, and if you are here for a week and want to spend the night in Naples and see what that’s all about, driving across Tamiami Trail, through Big Cypress, stop in at the famous Everglades photographers museum. Or just drive out for the afternoon.
People come to Miami and they think of South Beach. I don’t know why south Beach. Yes there is some interesting architecture but what else is there? night life, hot sand beaches, overpriced food. I don’t get it.
Morikami Gardens
Its a bit of a drive North but worth it if you have the day and want to walk through peaceful gardens. With a number of different styles of quite Japanese gardens displayed for you to walk thru, beautiful bridges, winding footpaths and a bonsai collection you won’t go wrong. The restaurant is good and a few times a year they have special events.
Fairchild Garden

Acres, and miles of paths wind thru this lush tropical paradise, take a tram ride, join a walking tour or just wander or sit and relax.
We love the indoor butterfly garden and you can sit in air conditioned luxury and watch it all through windows. I dont recommend the food so bring something with you if you want to eat here.
