Miami is very famous for being a vacation city that offers everything tourists are looking for, from wonderful beaches to Florida's biggest and best outlets, parks and other attractions. There are plenty of places to visit, whether during the day or at night, which are the area's hottest attractions.
For those who like to party, Miami is the best option in the state of Florida. So, if you're thinking of going there soon and you like the hustle and bustle, you need to check out everything about Miami's nightlife! With that in mind, we've listed the main places you should visit to enjoy it even more:
1. Go to the bars and restaurants on Lincoln Road
Not only is it very busy during the day, but at night the bustle doesn't let up! This is a great option for visiting various bars and restaurants, from those with tables overlooking the street to the more refined ones with great indoor spaces.
Oh, and here you'll also find those more ballad-like bars, you know? A DJ who plays all night while you enjoy the space to drink, eat and relax.
Oh, and if you feel like eating Brazilian food during your trip, be sure to check out the best Brazilian restaurants in Miami!
2. Discover the Ocean Drive nightclub
Ocean Drive is recognized as Miami's most famous and lively avenue, especially due to its location by the sea. This is where the city's main nightclubs are concentrated - you'll find out all about them later!
But as well as nightclubs, you can also enjoy great bars and restaurants. They all have a variety of food and drinks to suit all tastes.
A good option for the evening is the Clevelander hotel! It's very busy, with an excellent restaurant and bar, offering food and drinks at very affordable prices. The hotel gives preference to those already staying there; however, you can find out if it's open to outsiders on the date you're there.
3. Enjoy the Latin vibe of Española Way
For those who like something quieter, Española Way is a famous avenue in the city with many restaurants. It's very busy and there's an intense flow of people at all times of the year. If you like to sit at a table on the sidewalk and chat while you drink and eat, this is the place for you!
4. Look for a Pool Party
Miami's pool parties are those incredible parties that take place, more often than not, in the city's best hotels. Although many are during the day, with lots of sunshine, some start in the late afternoon and go on until late at night.
Normally, you need to pay an entrance fee and consumption inside may or may not be open bar, depending on the venue. The ideal thing to do is to find out which pool parties are happening when you're in town and join in the fun!
5. Take a night walk in the Wynwood area
Art walks in Miami are a unique experience, especially thanks to the street lighting: and not for nothing, you see! Part of the city's artificial lighting is designed to highlight local art installations, making everything more colorful and cheerful, attracting everyone's attention!
It's one of the most popular programs after sunset, as these tours reveal some of the city's best works of art, from sculptures to incredible paintings.

6. Watch plays at the Actors' Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre
The Actors' Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre is one of the main centers for the performing arts in Miami. If you're looking for quality shows, there's no better place in town! And the best thing is that there are options for all tastes on stage, from children's plays to adult dramas.
The humorous performances promise to bring smiles to everyone's faces. In addition, the venue offers sensory productions, perfect for children with disabilities. As the theater is non-profit, the prices are affordable, and it is the largest professional theater with its own productions in the region.
7. Go to the open-air cinemas in South Beach
If you love watching movies outdoors, Miami has plenty of options for you. In South Beach, there are outdoor cinemas in the park, where you can relax and watch a movie lying on your favorite picnic towel or while relaxing in your own car.
Most of these cinemas show the latest blockbusters, but only a few show classic favorites and independent films. But regardless of the movie, the option is always very welcome for our own experience!
8. Discover the best nightclubs in Miami
The best? We'll save that for last! We know that anyone who wants to enjoy Miami at night thinks of nightclubs, right? Here's a look at the best in the region and the reasons to visit them:
Mango's Tropical Ballad
For those who want to experience the essence of Miami, Mango's Tropical gives it all to the tourists who decide to visit it. Specializing in Caribbean music, salsa and merengue, this nightclub rocks the nights of Miami Beach, specifically in the Ocean Drive area.

It's a very colorful party and the drinks follow the same pattern, all full of color and with very tropical flavors. It's a perfect party for those looking for a different kind of program!
Mynt Ultralounge Ballad
Mynt Lounge Nightclub Miami is the star of Miami Beach nightclubs. It's the perfect place for those who want to really get down at night, with super chic and elegant decor.
There you'll meet stylish people and the best DJs in Florida, in a super lively atmosphere and with a bar that has a bit of everything. And we can't deny it, it's one of the best clubs in Miami Beach!
LIV Ballad
For those who like glamor, LIV Nightclub is the place to be, a chic nightclub that appeals to those who are more demanding. With a design full of lights and luxurious details, it has an in-house restaurant that serves the best dishes in the region.

If you're single, LIV is a great option.
Nikki Beach
Nikki Beach Club is one of those incredible open-air clubs right on the edge of Miami Beach. It is divided into two areas: one with a sandy area offering cabanas and beds so you can enjoy and relax at the same time. And the other is closed off, with a dance floor and other more intimate areas: a different proposal, but super interesting.
Story NightClub
Another glamorous nightclub with lots of lights, Story Nightclub is an incredible closed party. With lots of neon lights and the sound of black music and American pop, it's the ideal choice for those traveling with a group of people. If you're lucky, you can also enjoy concerts by famous artists and DJs.
How to get around Miami?
To make it easier for you to get out and about in the city, our final advice is to rent a car, not least because no one goes to see a lot of the sights on foot, especially in Miami where the places are a bit far apart. Oh, and if you're already thinking of renting a car, you're in the right place!

Is it expensive to rent a car in Miami?
If we put it in the balance, no! Renting a car in Miami is much cheaper than relying on app drivers or cabs in the city. In the United States, relying on other drivers not only makes for uncertain times, but is also much more expensive! In this sense, having a car is much more practical and cheaper!
There are so many great places to visit! But here's another tip: it's important to find out in advance how the place you're planning to visit works and how to get in. That's because many clubs only allow entry when your name is on the list. What's more, not all places are open every day, so it's a good idea to find out beforehand so you don't get stuck at the door.
