United states, Miami

Miami beach and coconut trees under the Florida sun

  When you are told Miami, you think of sun, beach and coconuts? And well ... you're right. At an average of 25 ° C year-round, Miami is an ideal destination if you are in search of sun and heat in winter. But like any large American city, it is expensive! Especially people who have money (lots of money) are plentiful in Miami ... So, budget issue it goes fast! And when I say American city, it is almost by its geographical location. In addition to soak up the pill, you can revise your Spanish is almost the official language! Perfect for me who head to South America. Argentines, Colombians, Venezuelans, all of Latin America is found in Miami! So do not forget your French-Spanish dictionary






Miami is divided into two areas:

Downtown Miami

  This part of town is not of great interest, with its buildings and its business center. It remains a center of great city ... It's still nice to walk along the bay and enjoy Miami Beach on one side, the buildings on the other, against a backdrop of coconut trees.
There is still a must-side location downtown: Wynwood! Artists took over this neighborhood, making buildings genuine masterpiece of street art. In this neighborhood, not a building not covered in paint! Just stroll to admire the frescoes ....
- Top tip: Free transport. the free trolley and Metromover. These two means of transport allow you to move around downtown for free.





Miami Beach

  An island where almost extends over the entire part is, an immense beach of fine sand and water (almost) turquoise! There's no to say, the beach of Miami Beach in pretty throws! All along, cabins rescuers to the US as we like. The southern part of Miami Beach is the most popular (in fact I've never been to the North ^^)
  The small beach below: jellyfish! Depending on the day, there is more or less a lot of jellyfish! Sometimes difficult to bathe without getting stung.
  While Miami Beach is really nice and pleasant but in the end there is not much to do in Miami ...





  Walk on Lincoln Road. Commercial artery between 16th and 17th Street is a shopper's paradise and restaurants!
  Make a yoga class on the beach at sunrise or sunset. Every day, morning and evening, at the lifeguard hut 3rd Street, an hour of yoga is offered. There is no price, you simply make a donation to the end. More info here.
  Walk on Ocean Drive. The most famous street in Miami Beach, Ocean Drive and palm trees discovers day and night. Dotted with restaurants and bars, the day it is a pleasant street to stroll along the palm trees. At night, the street comes alive to make one of the most popular places in the city to get out!
  Exit ! Obviously ... Miami is known and recognized for its nightlife. Every day, planes revolve above the beach to promote boxes. Touts offer tickets ... Top tip: make an entry in a hostel. For $ 20, you usually have an open bar for 30min to 1h and input box (which usually worth in 50 / $ 60) The most famous dishes are: Story, LIV, the Mansion, the Mango's for a Latin atmosphere. In short, there are plenty to choose from!
  Go to a basketball game at the American Airlines Arena to support the team of Miami Heats!
If you have a budget that allows it, there are plenty of water activities in Miami such as parasailing, jet skiing, boat ... days.





- Top tip: Transport (almost) free. In Miami Beach, there are two free trolleys and a bus that does all around the peninsula for only $ 0.25! Practical and economical!
In short, Miami is good but if the beach is not your thing, you'll quickly get bored! If instead you want to relax and enjoy, this is a perfect place!

Housing

Review: Super good position, 2 blocks from the beach, the staff is super friendly, the reception is open 24/24. Breakfast and dinner are included! Every evening, outings are available at reduced prices in general including an open bar in the hostel bar. The rooms are clean and spacious enough. For story short showers for the whole hostel but I never had to wait! In short, I recommend this hostel!





Budget

- Night in a hostel: From 20 to $ 35 depending on the time and location of the inn
- Released in box: if you take in a hostel, about $ 20, includes open bar
- Displacement: City Bus: $ 2.25 for a ride. Bus South Miami Beach: $ 0.25. Trolley: Free
- Food: Go do your shopping at Publix (One on the 5th and on the 18th), the cheapest supermarket, and cook at the inn. You can get away not too bad
