Things to do in Miami, Florida (FL): The Best Self-Guided Tours & Rentals

September 11, 2021 Emerita Lamoureux

Miami is hot hot hot! And it’s not just the sultry weather. Here, the nightlife is scorching, thanks to a strong Latin influence and spicy salsa culture. Dance the noche away in a nightclub, or indulge in a fancy meal at one of the city’s celebrity-owned restaurants. By day, hit the beach of course, or have yourself a walkabout, taking in Miami’s colorful art deco architecture. Grab a Cuban sandwich in Little Havana, then ride the vintage carousel at Virginia Key Beach Park.

I learned how to Kitesurf with Wind Addict. It took me 4 lessons to navigate and I'll say 2-3 more to stay upwind. The team of instructors was really good (on top of all details). The location, Stiltsville, is among the best places to learn in the world (flat, knee-deep water). Finally, their pricing is really competitive (despite the fact that they are probably the most professional school in town) I really recommend these guys! Cheers

I rented a bike from the Outdoor Center, the attendant was friendly and helpful trying to find the best bike and changing out several saddles to find one angled correctly. The park is great with a variety of trails for different levels of experience. It's amazing to have such a great outdoor activity so close to central Miami. The sporadic views across the bay are an added attraction to the trails. Highly recommended for visitors who want a day away from the city or the busy beaches.
