Miami what to do out and about 17:30 - May 13 with 664 viewsFischerZ

Going on a cruise next year from Miami. Adding a weeks stay in Miami. What is there to do/see etc in striking distance,trying to avoid kid based activities etc. Getting on a bit beyond the wild youthful days!

Have you considered partying in the city where the heat is on, all night, on the beach, till the break of dawn?

I think anyone going on a cruise is very brave or a bit daft. I know they are loved by many but the last year or so has just reaffirmed that they are mobile germ factories waiting to strike down all on board.

If you've got a week I'd be tempted to hire a car and head south.

Very much depends what time of year you're there - and whether gardens, markets, cuban food etc are your sort of thing - or being mugged and shot.

If they don't get you with covid they'll try norovirus instead.

I'm not the type to go on cruises anyway, but even if I were the number of cases where disease went round one of those ships would put me right off.

Don't boil a kettle on a boat.

If you are there between December and May, try to get to a Miami Heat game.
Whenever I'm stateside, I'll always try to get to an NBA game at that time of year.

That is how entertainment is done, if the Americans can bring any where near that kind of energy to ITFC it will be amazing.

It's a bit of a trek, probably 3 hours + I would imagine but Kennedy Space Centre is an amazing day out, if you're a nerd like me.

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

Head down the keys to Key West for a couple of days.

Rent a car. Head down to Key West for a couple of nights on the most amazing drive over the ocean (it has everything from history to low culture!), then meander your way back, past Miami, up the coast to the utterly unforgettable NASA museum at Cape Canaveral. If there is any major sport taking place in Miami while you are there, do it - it's quite an experience.

It's certainly a very different experience to football over here. I must admit there is something I like about the gritty, mid-November Millwall away type fixtures. Cold weather, wrapped up, train beers, underlying threat of being knocked out around the ground.

The pomp & ceremony of US sporting events is quite a spectacle. I always turn into Homer Simpson when I'm at any sports over the pond. My record was about 7 hot dogs at a Yankees game.

Jai-Alai. A sport like no other.

In the early 2000s, it was held in a wonderfully derelict large hall, but I think it is now situated in a couple of Miami casinos. Still worth a peek. For reference, there’s a quick shot of a Jai-Alai player at the 15-second mark of the Miami Vice title sequence.
