Top North Beach Hotels in Miami

Miami's North Beach, which spans from 46th to 78th Streets, is a much quieter, less crowded and hectic area to stay than its counterparts to the south, Mid-Beach and South Beach.

It is nevertheless within a quick drive away and conveniently connected with the city's FREE trolleys.

Now that the northern section of the Miami Beach Walk has been completed, you can walk or ride a bicycle all along the waterfront from North Beach all the way to South Pointe.

This is one of the city's most fantastic walks and paths, you can bike the 6 miles or so from North Beach to South Beach in a leisurely hour taking your time to stop and enjoy the views...

Or take a detour through one of the many access points to the beach...

Also located in North Beach is the North Beach Bandshell, the city's outdoor venue on Collins Avenue and 73rd Street. This is where many of the city of Miami Beach's concerts and holiday events take place such as the 4th of July fireworks and festival.

And just next door but a world away, the very last stop in Miami Beach, North Shore Open Space Park aka North Beach Oceanside Park between 78th and 87th Streets, with no high-rises around it is literally a breath of fresh air. For doggie lovers this is the perfect place with its Bark Beach area where dogs can romp around off leash in the designated section of the beach! It is open only on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
