According to Visit Florida, Miami is one of the state’s – and the world’s – most popular vacation spots. Though destinations often are said to offer something for everyone, the Miami area does indeed offer multiple enticements for everyone: – The trendy nightlife of South Beach, bejeweled by the eye candy of the Art Deco district. – The bustle of Calle Ocho and the highly caffeinated energy of Little Havana. – The plush hotels of Miami Beach and the historic hideaways of Coral Gables. – Seemingly endless shopping opportunities in modern, sprawling malls and the quiet, personal attention offered by the family-owned shops of Coconut Grove and many other corners of the region. – The lures of deep-sea fishing and golf and tennis. – Miami’s profesional football, basketball, baseball and hockey. – Boat shows and auto racing. – Art festivals and outdoor food and wine extravaganzas. – An international airport and the world’s busiest cruise port.
