South Beach is a fun place to take out-of-town guests, after all, what is a trip to Miami without going to South Beach? But if you're looking for a more family friendly or quiet spot to soak up the sun, go about 90 blocks north into Bal Harbour to Haulover Beach. In my time going to both South Beach and Haulover, the water is much clearer and there are less people at Haulover Beach. If you are a modest type, stay on the southern end of the beach though, because the north end is a nude beach. Unfortunately, all the snack bars are up north, too.

Pros: Clearer Water, PLENTY of Parking

Cons: Not as Exciting

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

Some of the beach's best outdoor cafes are a walk across Ocean Drive. The News Cafe is a favorite, and Lario's on the Beach (Gloria Estefan's Cuban joint) serves first-rate, thirst-quenching mojitos.
