South Beach is the southern tip of Miami Beach, home to Ocean Drive’s Art Deco hotels and the stretch of sand most visitors picture when they think of Miami.

One of the World’s Largest Art Deco Districts

The Art Deco Historic District runs roughly from 6th to 23rd Street and holds one of the largest collections of Art Deco architecture anywhere, with many of the pastel-colored hotels along Ocean Drive dating to the 1930s.

Walkable, and a Quick Ride from the Mainland

South Beach is compact enough to explore on foot or by bike, and it is a roughly 20 to 30 minute rideshare from Miami International Airport across the MacArthur Causeway.
