Miami is America's most tropical city — a place where a genuinely warm, subtropical climate, a diverse Latin American culture and a flair for the spectacular combine to create a city unlike any other in the United States. South Beach's Art Deco Historic District is the most photographed streetscape in Florida: candy-coloured buildings from the 1930s and 40s, perfectly restored and buzzing with street life. The Wynwood Walls have turned a former warehouse district into the most concentrated collection of street art murals in the world. Little Havana offers an authentic window into Cuban-American culture. And Biscayne Bay, with its clear water and mangrove islands, provides excellent sailing, paddleboarding and dolphin watching within the city limits.
When to go: November to April is ideal — warm, dry and free of hurricane risk. June to September is hot and humid with afternoon thunderstorms.
The best months to visit Miami are April. Peak season is July with the best combination of warm temperatures and low rainfall.
