Miami: a dream destination to enjoy with the family. Traveling as a family will always be a great experience, especially for children as they go through a stage of life where the most lasting memories and experiences are forged.
In the United States there are few destinations that really offer a comprehensive option, in the sense that they manage to please adults and children simultaneously. Walking at the foot of Manhattan’s skyscrapers can be a dazzling option for an adult, but a child can feel overwhelmed by so much tumult and noise. Washington’s museum offerings may be interesting for a history buff, but a child can get bored among such solemnity.
Miami, on the other hand, is a rare case in the sense that it has so many things to offer both children and adults. The capital of the sun offers a wide variety of family plans ranging from amusement parks, beaches with crystal clear waters and even a few days sailing through the Caribbean. Start.
Miami: one step away from the best amusement parks
Given its location, it is easy to get from Miami to the cities of Tampa and Orlando. In a matter of less than five hours you can be in the host cities of the best theme parks around the world. There are activities for everyone here: If you’re looking for cinematic entertainment, at Universal Studios you’ll find the iconic attractions of Jurassic Park, WaterWorld and the newly opened magical world of Harry Potter. If you want something intrepid, in Island Of Adventure you will enjoy classics such as The Incredible Hulk, Popeye The Sailor and Spider-Man. If you go to extremes, you have to visit the land of roller coasters, better known as Busch Gardens. Or if you prefer fun submerged in the water, the best options are Disney’s Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon, Discovery Cove and Universal’s Volcano Bay.
But without a doubt, what you can not miss is Disneyland and all its parks -Magic Kingdom, Epcot Center, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom-. In this place, in addition to children, adults can also have fun and reconnect with their childhood, taking a selfie with Mickey Mouse, Buzz Lightyear and The Little Mermaid.
Disney, in addition, turns out to be an excellent option for adults since it houses the Dowtown Disney. It is a pedestrian promenade lined with international restaurants, clothing stores and entertainment venues such as the world-famous Cirque du Soleil.
Entertainment for children without leaving the city
Now, if you prefer to explore the options that Miami County has for you, there is no better entertainment than a day at the beach. It is a plan that does not fail and that children, young people and adults enjoy equally. As you know, Miami is a city that borders the Atlantic coast, which has blessed it with some of the best beaches in the world. It is worth mentioning those of Crandon Park in Key Biscayne, those of Matheson Hammock Park (these due to their shallow depths are highly safe for children), and the crystal clear waters of the world-famous South Beach beach. Another good plan by the sea is the Hollywood Broadwalk, where you can enjoy outdoor concerts and take a family bike ride.
On the other hand, Miami also houses museums for children. Among these, the Pérez Art Museum and the Miami Children’s Museum. The latter was created exclusively to learn and explore its already famous pirate island. Also just ten minutes from downtown Miami, you will find Jungle Island, a place where animals live in a natural habitat. And if you want to continue with the natural, the Everglades will always be a great idea to spend a family day, how about taking a hovercraft ride to see crocodiles, birds and fish?, Or would you be willing to kayak on the Oleta River, or tour the surroundings of Key Biscayne to see dolphins swimming in freedom?
But if after a long day of shopping, long walks or watching the children, you are looking to escape to rest without the little ones leaving aside the fun, you could venture on a trip through the Caribbean. Every day in the port of Miami boats leave with long and short distances to different destinations. One of them is the famous Disney cruise, with a stop on its own Caribbean island. It is ideal for you to relax and they have fun.
Say no more, and travel as a family!
