Miami-Dade County: The Heartbeat of Florida

Whether you’re looking for a glass-glimmering metropolis or the quiet solitude of stark open Everglades, Miami-Dade County, the last stop on the southeastern coast of the United States, is a territory rich with both.

Across its nearly 2,000 miles of diverse terrain, Miami-Dade is a colorful mix of landscapes, cultures, lifestyles, and American history. Miami rises from its eastern shore, a bright central stone in the jewel-bed of beachside hotels and resorts that cluster around emerald-blue waters and white-sand beaches that comprise the coastline of southeastern Florida.

With a dazzling array of music, food, dancing, and history, once you enter Miami- Dade County, the possibilities are as broad as your ambition. Vibrant, youthful Miami offers heated nightlife and chic boutiques, while the urban core offers family- friendly summer events, such as theatrical events at the Arsht Center, wine tastings at HistoryMiami, youth sports leagues, special parks programs, mountain biking, paintball, and fishing in the Atlantic.

Miami's beaches are amongst the most sought-after in North America, including Miami Beach, South Beach, and a the stretch of lesser known treasures lining the eastern side of the Miami barrier island.

The attractions are endless in Miami: the city serves as a magnet for prestigious museums and art shows, including the world-famous Art Basel Miami Beach. Sports fans can catch a game when the Dolphins, Marlins, or Heat are in town, and, as home to some of the most difficult courses in the world, Miami hosts a great number of professional golf tournaments each year.

Beyond the hustle and bustle of the city, options for exploration include the Everglades, Biscayne National Park, and Big Cypress. From wildlife watching in the ‘Glades, to scuba diving in the nationally-recognized reefs of Biscayne, to canoeing the high waters of Big Cypress, the variety and vitality of Miami-Dade County is enormous.
