Bayside Market
by GUYON
An out door mall (nethertheless, covered) with plenty of shops and restaurants.
You can be pictured with a parrot or with a snke. The Hard Rock cafe is here.
The prices are expensive and the food is average.
There are some street musicians and some pickpocketers (one of them want to steal in my pocket the instruction brochure of my camera. May be a beginner...).
Packing List
by seamandrew
When packing be sure to include the following. They are a must!
Sunscreen
Bathing suit
shorts
umbrella
The last is very important since Miiami Beach gets a lot of rain. Be sure to bring some insect repellent too. Lots of mosquitos. Include a polarizing lens for your camera. The suns glare on the sea can ruin many a picture.
Place an 'Aerial Ad'. Tell...
by pulgaron
Place an 'Aerial Ad'. Tell your 'Honey' how much you love her/him with big flying letters up in the sky where everyone can see it. Propose to her/him, how can she/he refuse you after that? These ads are pulled behind an airplane up and down Miami Beach. They do six circles, so you get to see your ad six times, and you can have up to 55 letters and numbers. As of today these ads are priced at $315.00. Air Ads can be reached at 1-877-447-2678. Talk to Melinda.
Live music, great people
by agarcia about Tobacco Road
Tobacco Road is a huge bar, located at Miami downtown. It has the typical American Bar atmosphere, with live music, TV sets, and people drinking and having fun all night long. Just remember not to pay attention to the gambling machine at the end of the bar. You could easily spend the night playing card games, while laughing out laud with the jokes of the Puerto Rican folks ;-) Dressy or casual; It doesn’t matter.
Getting to South Beach from Miami Airport
by chrissyalex
There are several options to get to South Beach from the airport. The least expensive is the bus, but it also takes the longest and if you have alot of luggage, it can be cumbersome.,but it should probably only cost you a $1.50. The Clay Hotel website. www.clayhotel.com has the directions to do this.
There is the Supershuttle . It will cost $13 per person. www.supershuttle.com
I took a cab. The set fare to South Beach from the airport is $24 but this works out cheaper than the Supershuttle if there is more than one person traveling.
