Best Shopping Malls, Outlet and Places in Miami Beach Area

"Bayside Marketplace is a great location for the start of your tour. It is an energetic place with loads of shops, restaurants and shops, plus everything is accompanied by live music. Essentially, this is a shopping mall out in the open, so you can do your shopping or simply sit down for a drink right next to the bay, but in any case, you will be able to get a sense of what Miami is all about very quickly. The place is buzzing with people from all over the world, be they tourists or locals, and visiting it is a great way to energize yourself for the day ahead."

"Finish your trip with a relaxing day in Bayside. With its colorful garden, its colonial architecture and its history, Villa Vizcaya is beautiful and really worth the trip. You can easily spend half a day there. Try and spot the multicolored giant lizards outside."

"401 Biscayne Blvd R106 Bayside Marketplace is a farmers marketplace in Downtown Miami. It has a lot of tourist attractions and you can even go on boat tours to get even better images of the area. There is a cost to ride the boats."

"A former Drug Enforcement Agency warehouse, the Rubell Family Collection located in Wynwood proves to be anything but conventional. Spanning 40,000-square-feet, the museum tailors the whole first floor as the “New Shamans” exhibit, which features the work of artists who hail from South America. While the downstairs transports you into an enriching world that addresses environmental, social and political concerns, the museum’s “High Anxiety: New Acquisitions” is more therapeutic: the exhibit uses art to channel and understand everyday nerves and stresses."

"WynwoodThe Rubell family, whose name has been synonymous with art and philanthropy in Miami for decades, has renovated a 100,000-square-foot industrial space west of Wynwood to showcase its massive collection. The family prides itself on finding great artists early in their careers, and visiting the museum you’ll find stuff from Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Jeff Koons, Rashid Johnson, and others from long before the world knew their names. The private collection is beyond impressive, with 7,200 works from more than 1,000 artists."

"It was the talk of the town during Art Basel 2020, and not without reason. The Rubells' new museum in Allapattah is by far the best permanent collection of art in South Florida, showcasing the family's vast collection of contemporary art from the '60s onward. You'll find work by Jeff Koons, Sterling Ruby, and Kehinde Wiley and a shrine-like gallery for Keith Haring."

"Grab the car and spend the afternoon in Coconut Grove strolling through the Tuscan-style pedestrian mall CocoWalk, which includes hundreds of shops, restaurants and bars. A hidden favorite down the road, Monty’s, is ideal for waterfront afternoon drinking and the occasional local band. Walk along the dock to admire boats of all shapes and sizes."

"In the heart of Coconut Grove lies this beautiful outdoor shopping complex. From shopping to seeing a movie, to enjoying nightly entertainment in the Courtyard, you can make a whole day of exploring the Cocowalk. Stores include Coco Cigars, Gap, Maui Nix Surf, Coco Sun, Sportive, Victoria’s Secret, and 305 Wireless & Accessories."

"A post shared by CocoWalk (@cocowalkmiami) on Aug 31, 2018 at 2:03pm PDT. In the heart of the Coconut Grove community is CocoWalk. Coconut Grove is one of the oldest communities in Miami and it has always tried to maintain its old school Miami aesthetic."

"Spread across eight square blocks just off Washington Avenue, this breezy, open-air shopping street offers a high-low variety in a tropical sun-drenched setting. With over seventy-five shops ranging from national brands like H&M and Sephora to specialty boutiques, spend the day window-shopping with a friend or bring the entire family. After some serious retail therapy, sit down at your choice of sixty local restaurants including Havana 1957 for authentic Cuban cuisine or duck into SuViche for a tuna tartare and a glass of Peruvian macerados."

"Arguably Miami's most well-known shopping center, the Lincoln Road Mall in South Beach is full of stores, boutiques, art galleries, and museums. Nearly the entire area of this open-air mall is closed to automobile traffic, making it a great place to stroll and people watch. You'll find Urban Outfitters, Madewell, Steve Madden, Melissa Shoes, Scotch & Soda, Nike, Lacoste, Forever 21, Adidas by Stella McCartney, BCBG Max Azria, Anthropologie, Ted Baker, Zara, Victoria’s Secret, American Eagle, Zadig & Voltaire, Lululemon Athletica, and more."

"A post shared by Thomas ONeill (@tjoneillinc) on May 10, 2017 at 5:42pm PDT. Lincoln Road has quickly become a Miami shopping hot spot especially since the area has been closed off to pedestrian traffic only. The street runs east to west and is parallel to 16th and 17th street."

"You also have the Dolphin Mall relatively close to you. However, if you can’t spare too many hours, there are some interesting things to do in Miami airport, as well. The food is great, and you can try many Cuban specialties to get a taste of what it’s like around here, but the airport also boasts a yoga room, art exhibits and even a spa."

"Experience fine art, live music and all things Cuban at the eclectic and elegant Cuba Ocho gallery cum nightclub in Little Havana. Located on Calle Ocho, Cuba Ocho is a sensory experience. Antiques fill the large entertainment space; elegant sofas and a mix of intimate seating invites you to enjoy whatever live band is playing on stage. There’s a lovely bar in the front of the house, with a New Orleans-style courtyard and fountain beyond."

In addition, visitors see locals playing dominoes in Domino Park, which offers another look into Cuban culture."

"calle ocho little havanaCalle 8 is located in the heart of Little Havana and is known as the Cuban version of the walk of fame. As you stroll along Calle Ocho, you will see stars on the ground with the most famous Cuban celebrities!. There are many photo opportunities on Calle Ocho."

"Coconut GroveThere’s nothing quite like delving into a spicy, steaming plate of chicken vindaloo in a mirrored space that could well have been the inspiration for the Babylon Club. But would you expect any less out of Miami’s most vaunted Indian restaurant, who moved into this massive Mayfair space after it outgrew its old digs on Commodore Plaza. Bombay Darbar plays the Indian classics better than anyone in Miami, and though it’s not as cutting edge as some of our more-celebrated Indian eateries it still packs ’em in night after night.How to book: Call 305-444-7272 to reserve."

"What began as a mom-and-pop 30-seater has grown into an Indian-food mainstay with two locations (Coconut Grove and Fort Lauderdale). Diners crunch on crisp papadum wafers while watching Bollywood movies on a large screen and perusing the menu. That list is lengthy, but at its heart are the tikkas, tandooris, and vindaloos that fans of Indian food crave."

"Miami’s hottest spot for amazing seafood and beautiful waterfront dining is located on the banks of the Miami River. Just minutes from Downtown Miami and the Brickell Financial District, Seaspice Brasserie and Lounge, has brought a vision unlike any other to the Miami River, transforming a post-industrial warehouse outfitted in unexpected, sophisticated nautical touches into a world renowned fine dining destination. Coral Gables Love reader, Suzy, recommends you try the risotto."

"The restaurant sits on the banks of the Miami River, providing an awe-inspiring view of the waterway and its equally stunning yachts. It’s a lot of fun looking at the gorgeous boats pass by while you enjoy some delicious food. As you can probably guess from the name and location, Seaspice’s menu is focused heavily on fish and other seafood offerings, but there is something for all tastes."

"As far as we’re concerned, it doesn’t get much better than dining on a lobster Benedict while lounging on Seaspice’s gorgeous patio on the Miami River. Did we mention the bottomless rosé?. You’ll have a prime viewing spot of mega yachts cruising along the downtown waterfront as your glass is continuously refilled."

"Ring local staple Joe’s Stone Crab for a takeout lunch just down the street; Miami natives know the side dishes are the best things on the menu. Order a few claws, but focus on hashed brown potatoes, famous coleslaw, sweet potato fries, creamed spinach and a slice of Key lime pie if you have room. Dine outside at your picnic tables and enjoy the view."
