In our previous article, we have already dealt with Miami, assuming to organize a boat trip here discovering the attractions of this place: Miami is on your bucket list?
Today we focus instead on what everyone considers as “Miami” but in reality is a city within the city, Miami Beach, discovering it on our rental boat.
Here we go!
Miami or Miami Beach?
Let’s start by explaining the main misunderstanding.
When we imagine a trip to Miami, what immediately comes to mind? Well, most of the time we think of wide and long white beaches, pedestrian streets full of bright and colorful clubs, crowded with luxury cars. Maybe we can even see those ports full of VIPs yachts and boats
Well, this isn’t actually Miami but Miami Beach! Perhaps it is better to say that it is a Miami within Miami.
Where can I boat in Miami?
Yes because, for over a century, Miami Beach has been a distinct municipality part of the Miami-Dade district. However, we are all used to confusing them as we have always heard about this Florida city like Miami.
On the other hand, this is the entertainment area, where millions of tourists are concentrated searching for sun, sea, and fun.

Where is exactly Miami Beach located?
Identifying it is very simple. Miami Beach is a long, narrow island (actually a collection of islands and islets) that runs north to south along the Florida coast. On one side it is bathed by the Biscayne bay waters and on the other by the Atlantic Ocean.
The city is bordered to the south by two large islands, Dodge and Lummus Island, which form the Port of Miami, the largest cruise port in the world. To the north, instead, from the residential districts of Bal Harbor and Surfside.
Where to start our itinerary?
The first place to drop anchor is definitely in front of south beach.
South Beach is the neighborhood with which Miami Beach and perhaps Miami, in general, is identified.
Located south of Miami Beach, between streets 5 and 41, this South Beach neighborhood has hundreds of Art Deco-style buildings, popular areas like Ocean Drive, and, of course, some of Miami’s most wanted beaches.
Ocean Drive in particular is a street in South Beach that overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and from which is divided by a strip of palm trees and a wide sidewalk. It is known for its Art Deco-inspired hotels and is one of the most iconic streets in the Art Deco District.
This street is very popular both during the day, when the beach and the sidewalk are populated with people and at night when it is colored with the lights of many clubs, including restaurants and bars that enliven the Miami Beach nights.
The artificial neighborhood islands:
Still south of the city, but this time in the Biscayne Bay, the famous Star, Hibiscus, and Palm island is really worth navigating.
Three artificial islands built by subtracting land from the sea and known to be inhabited by famous people who live or have lived in the various villas in the area.
Why and where to boat in Miami?
There may be many reasons for choosing a boat as your base for visiting Miami Beach over the classic hotel room. First of all the fact of living an experience out of the ordinary.
What drives us to recommend this type of holiday here is that the city lends itself, more than many others, to being discovered far and wide with this means of transport.
