Even if you’ve never been to Miami Beach, you know Miami Beach. It is a vibrant town, sun-kissed and clad in Caribbean pastels and crisp white linen. Set apart from Miami by Biscayne Bay, and set apart from the world by sheer attitude, Miami Beach is a vacation postcard brought to life. People flock here, drawn by the ocean breezes and beautiful beaches, the legendary luxe lifestyle, and the lively streets, clubs, stores, and restaurants. In fact, the city accounts for more than half of all tourist visits to Miami-Dade County. But Miami Beach isn’t solely what you see in celebrity-focused magazines or c.1980s TV. It’s also a place for refined life enjoyed in high-rises and lush enclaves — a heaven-on-earth bound by museums and marinas, food and fashion trends, and groundbreaking art.
