Town & Country Magazine recently named Aventura Mall one of the chicest shopping destinations in Miami (minutes from The Beach Pad). Over the past few years, South Florida has skyrocketed to the top of the world’s arts and design scene, so it’s only fitting that the best mall in Miami added sophistication to the shopping experience through museum-level art.

This is one of our favorite spots for a quick breakfast. Love…their scrambled eggs, which are cooked just right! The service is friendly and fast. This is a very small old school diner located in East Hollywood on the North side of Hollywood Blvd across the street from City Hall. They serve a variety of fresh homemade dishes that are both health conscious and delicious; hearty sandwiches made with only the choicest meats and fresh vegetables, satisfying salads and soups. All their bagels and breads are freshly baked nightly. Tony's Special: $5.75 - includes 2 eggs w/bacon, ham or sausage & pancakes, French toast or potato pancakes.

The view can't be beat from anywhere, period. You're literally sitting above the aqua colored, Atlantic Ocean with water and beach views as far as you can see. It's the best place to catch a game or take a date. Our sushi and seafood dishes are so fresh, you'll think we reeled them in ourselves. Craft beers, hand-crafted cocktails, award-winning ribs, pasta, salads and the best burger for miles. This needs to be your go-to spot if you're looking for the ultimate beach location.

This gorgeous park is bisected by its namesake waterway that breathes life into this spectacular natural oasis of hardwood hammocks and mangroves. While biking the 15 miles of off-road bicycling trails or paddling along lush mangrove forests on the Oleta River, it is difficult to believe Oleta River State Park exists in the shadow of downtown Miami. At just over a thousand acres, this natural oasis—Florida’s largest urban park—is a haven for mountain bikers, paddlers, anglers, swimmers and for families out to enjoy a picnic along scenic Biscayne Bay.
