No trip to Miami is complete with out a visit to Joe's! The Legendary Joe's Stone Crab opened in Miami Beach in 1913 and is now one of the most beloved and recognized restaurants worldwide, famous for its Florida Stone crab, signature sides and Key lime pie. If you can't get a reservation, they have take-away and casual dining options as well.
If you want to avoid the crowds, definitely make sure to check out the beaches north of 21st street. These beaches are more local and more peaceful, and the boardwalk is a great way to explore them. If you're looking for more of a party scene, head to the beaches between 17th- 5th street. South Pointe Park at the most southern tip of the island is definitely the most beautiful beach according to us, but we recommend walking or grabbing an Uber to head over there- parking can be tricky!
