Famous for its beautiful beaches and luxurious nights, America’s seventh most populous city has a reputation for being somewhat superficial. That reputation may have to do with the shine of jewelry, freshly waxed convertibles or tanned skins, but it is also true that in Miami (Florida) You can find stunning beaches, exuberant nature and idyllic corners where you can enjoy a perfect mix of cultures.

1. Enjoy the beach all year round

With temperatures that rarely drop below 20ºC, Miami has an exceptional climate to lie on the beach from January to December. Of course, keep in mind that July is the hottest month and that the hurricane season is from May to October.
