So where should you stay? The epicenter of the action remains South Beach and the Art Deco District area including Ocean Drive, Miami's legendary strip.

Spring Break in Miami is also a great chance for families seeking a break from the cold temperatures, and we do have plenty of beaches where you will not be bothered with partying crowds and noise. Staying away from the South Beach area will assure you a more tranquil vibe so you can enjoy your surf and sun with the family.

The following areas will be quieter while still within easy reach of South Beach:
