The sun shines on Miami 365 days a year. It is therefore, no surprise that outdoor activities dominate the list of things to do in this great city. There are some great art galleries and museums in Miami, but more often then not the beautiful weather will not allow you to stay inside for too long. Bring your sunscreen and I will walk you through the perfect day outdoors.

Hit the beach first thing in the morning. Miami beaches are clean and picturesque; soak it in before it gets too crowded. Hollywood and South Beach both have great places to eat with views of the ocean. If you want to window shop after your meal at a South Beach cafe, Lincoln road or Washington Avenue can eat up a few hours. As you leave South beach on Macarthur Causeway stop at Parrot Jungle on your right. Here you can experience all the native animals South Florida has to offer, on a secluded tropical island. Then continue in to downtown Miami and stop at Bayside Market Place where shopping, eating, drinking and any kind of boat ride becomes an option.

If you have any time left in your day a stop at the seaquarium, a round of golf or a trip to the Everglades are all great Miami activities. Don’t worry there is always tomorrow and chances are it will probably be another beautiful day.
