MIAMI BEACH

Miami Beach, located on a barrier island across Biscayne Bay from downtown Miami, has a multicultural community and an abundance of shopping, dining and nightlife opportunities. With more than seven miles of oceanfront sand and warm climate, outdoor activities keep people active and entertained. Festivals take place nearly every week, and Miami’s professional sports teams are a short drive away. In 2011, Miami Beach was given the Outstanding Achievement City Livability Award by The U.S. Conference of Mayors.
