MIAMI & FORT LAUDERDALE
Miami and Fort Lauderdale bring together all the things we love most about a Florida escape: sunny beaches, colourful neighbourhoods, great food and that laid‑back coastal buzz. Each city has its own personality, but both make brilliant starting points for holidays that mix beach time, sightseeing and a cruise to the Caribbean or Bahamas thanks to PortMiami and Port Everglades, two of the busiest cruise ports in the world.
Miami is bold and full of energy. From the iconic Art Deco district of South Beach to the street art of Wynwood and the Latin‑inspired flavours of Little Havana, there’s always something to explore. One of our favourite Miami experiences is simply wandering Ocean Drive at sunset the neon lights, music drifting from cafés and the warm sea breeze set the perfect holiday mood. For culture lovers, the Pérez Art Museum and the Frost Science Museum are well worth a few hours.
Just up the coast, Fort Lauderdale offers a more relaxed, breezy feel with its golden beaches and winding
waterways. They don’t call it the “Venice of America” for nothing and one of our favourite ways to see the city is from the water on a Water Taxi. Las Olas Boulevard is another highlight, packed with shops, galleries and restaurants we love returning to. It’s also incredibly convenient for cruising, with Port Everglades only minutes from the beach.
Both cities make great twin‑centre options or pre‑cruise stays, with plenty of opportunities to dive into local flavours, enjoy beachfront living and soak up Florida sunshine. Whether you’re here for nightlife, culture, relaxation or a seamless start to your Caribbean adventure, Miami and Fort Lauderdale are coastal favourites we return to again and again.
