Are you visiting Miami for just one day and want to know what to do to make the most of your trip? So check out our 1 day itinerary in Miami, with the best tips of what you can do while in the city.
1 day itinerary in Miami for shoppers
If you want to go shopping in Miami, there are many places you can enjoy. Certainly, the best of them is the Sawgrass Mills Miami Outlet, known for being the biggest and best outlet in the whole country. There, you’ll find the largest number of stores in the same place, so there’s no mistake, you’ll find anything you want to buy. There are over 360 great stores.
As it is located in a more remote area of Fort Lauderdale, we recommend that you spend the whole day there so that you can do your shopping more easily. The outlet has a few restaurants where you can have lunch during your shopping break. Best of all, on the outlet’s official website you can find unmissable discounts on many brands, such as GAP, H&M, M.A.C., Michael Kors, Converse and Adidas.
In addition, if you get to the outlet early enough, you’ll certainly be able to leave in the evening. So it’s worth enjoying some of Miami’s nightlife.
For that, our tip is for you to visit Ocean Drive, one of the city’s main avenues, which has many great nightlife attractions. There, you will find lots of restaurants, bars and even more stores. All this almost right on the beach.
To finish off your evening, simply choose one of the options for dinner and then stroll along the beach before heading back to your hotel. The place is very busy and its night lighting makes it even more beautiful.
1 day itinerary in Miami around the main tourist attractions
If your trip to Miami isn’t about shopping, it’s well worth seeing some of the city’s tourist attractions. The main stop for all tourists is the beloved Miami Beach, with its famous beaches that attract thousands of visitors. Spending the morning there is a great way to enjoy the city.
Next, head to the Lummus Park area in Miami. It’s possible to cycle in the area and you’ll love cycling while you explore more of the city. From there, it’s easy to get to Ocean Drive and Lincoln Road, two of the city’s main shopping and dining areas. It’s worth taking a quick stroll along them and having lunch there.
The Dolphin Mall is also in this area, where you can stroll around for the rest of the afternoon. In the evening, the same recommendation as above applies: enjoy the end of your trip by enjoying the nightlife of Ocean Drive. Even for a short time, your trip will be memorable.
