Top 10 Kid Friendly Things To Do and Attractions in Miami Beach

"One of the most photographed locations in Miami, Wynwood Walls is a collection of murals and paintings laid out over an open courtyard. Artist-led tours are available, but it’s free to simply explore on your own. What invariably bowls people over is the sheer exuberant colors and commanding presence of the murals, which only tend to be around for less than a year before they are painted over."

"Start your Wynwood adventure at the Wynwood Walls, home to dozens of murals by the world’s top street artists. The murals change regularly, so the next time you visit Miami, many of them will be different. It’s easy to spend an hour or more wandering through the murals and the galleries connected to the Walls."

"You’ll be snorkeling (or diving) on the Jose Cuervo Reef south of Second Street. The massive margarita bar was sunk over a decade ago in less than 20 feet of water, and today it’s home to a spectrum of sober sea creatures."

"If you’re lucky enough, you'll get some cruises in the background. The park has hundreds of palm trees and a beautiful ocean view. It is the perfect backdrop to make your landlocked friends jealous."

"Whether it's raining or just too hot, head inside to enjoy the air conditioning of the Miami Children's Museum.

"While not shooting from the museum itself, head under the bridge and see why this is one of my favorite spots. Sunset and night are my favorite times at this awesome spot."

"This gem on Calle Ocho is home to the famous Abuela Maria ice cream scoop, made with vanilla mixed with bright jewels of ruby red guava, rich cream cheese and crispy Maria crackers. It’s a Cuban classic. Now doing take-out only."

"After lunch, cool off with a delicious ice cream treat from Azucar, which offers locally-inspired flavors like Sweet Plantain, Cafe con Leche, and Caramel Flan. What to do in Miami in 2 days: Day 1 Afternoon"

"‘You will be seeing unusual accomplishment,’ reads the inscription on the rough-hewn quarried wall. That’s an understatement. There is no greater temple to all that is weird and wacky about South Florida. The legend: a Latvian gets snubbed at the altar. Comes to the USA and settles in Florida. Handcarves, unseen, in the dead of night, a monument to unrequited love."

"Unlike the Medditerian Revival mansions at Coral Gables or the Art Deco buildings of the South beach, The Coral Castle Museum is a singular structure. It is said that the 1,100-ton coral rock castle was built single-handedly by a man who lost his love. The structure alludes to mysteries like that of Stonehenge."

"A large park hidden within the enclave of Morningside, the area's namesake park is a great neighborhood park, with tons of room to run and climb trees and a variety sports facilities."

"Tucked among the estates of Pine Tree Drive, this park has a community garden and lots of tranquil, undisturbed waterfront green space."

"Another Peruvian restaurant that is worth checking out is Aromas del Peru. Some of the menu choices include traditional Creole cuisine with a classic style that you will surely love along with innovative dishes. With great food and service, it has everything that you need to enjoy a lovely meal."

"When your seafood comes from the restaurant owner’s own boats, you know you are getting the freshest seafood possible. For the last 20 years, Casablanca Seafood has been one of the favorite Miami restaurants, not only for its fantastic location on the Miami River, you can even arrive in your own boat, but also for its superb food. The large dining room is elegant and comfortable, with its wall of glass overlooking the river, but if you can, sit outside on the spacious terrace and watch the boats pass by against the distant Miami skyline."

"This riverfront fish market and restaurant serves up some of South Florida’s best seafood, caught daily. The casual spot channels major Key West vibes, and the views of Downtown Miami are awe-inspiring as the food is delicious. Savor local and international fresh seafood dishes, like cod fritters, Creole shrimp tostones, hearty paella, and a grilled parillada that comes with prawns, calamari, oysters, octopus and more."

"This iconic restaurant has been around for more than 20 years and is right next to the seafood market, meaning you’ll be served only the freshest food. Casablanca sits on the waterfront of the Miami River and offers its guests a wonderful view of downtown Miami. You may have a short wait for a table, and they don’t take reservations, but definitely plan on stopping by, it’s worth it!"

"One part fish market, one part restaurant, the Garcia name has been synonymous with fresh seafood for more than 50 years. It's definitely a local landmark, so if you don’t have a permanent Magic City address, expect to be in the minority—but don’t feel awkward about it. This is one place Miamians are happy to share."

"According to the Miami New Times, a great place to visit is Garcia’s Seafood Grille & Fish Market. This establishment is part market and part seafood restaurant, and it is located in Miami-Dade County. It has been open since the 1960s, and it has become known for its variety of seafood sandwiches and seafood salads."

"Wood Tavern epitomizes the Miami art/hipster vibe found in the new 'it' neighborhood, Wynwood. The bar appears like a standard dive in the front, but the outdoor oasis has picnic tables, a few games, strings of lights, and tons of graffiti—the..."

"The place is decorated with contemporary paintings and celebrity murals such as Frida Kahlo and Audrey Hepburn. Come for the inspiration and take as many pictures as you want."

"More of a cultural center than a museum, the space is both a comforting reminder for Haitian expats of their country’s art, history, music, movies, and literature and a fascinating look into a Caribbean nation that too few have been able to visit. Opened in 2004 to commemorate Haiti’s Bicentennial, the 60,000-square-foot museum is a one-of-a-kind experience just steps from Miami’s Little Haiti neighborhood, a location that makes it even more immersive ($10/adult).
