Travel tips
If you plan to explore beyond South Beach, several bus stops are within a few minutes’ walk (including stops near Washington Ave & 5th Street), which can simplify getting around without a car. With dining extremely close (some spots are within a few dozen meters), it’s easy to plan meals spontaneously. Miami International Airport is roughly 16 km away, so allow extra time for traffic depending on arrival hour.
