    Dolphin Mall is very large outlet for lots of shopping options, I didn't have enough time for shopping reason that's why I can't recommend for not experienced in this way. But it's very crowded, it was worthy to see when you're visiting Miami. I went for a business lunch and got a chance to see Dave & Buster arcade sports bar. You should need to arrange enough time of it's huge capacity.

    If you're in Miami, Little Havana is an absolute must-see! The moment I stepped into this vibrant neighborhood, I was immersed in the lively Latin music and the incredible atmosphere. The whole area is full of energy and good vibes.

    One of the highlights was the amazing food—tasty, authentic Cuban flavors that really hit the spot! I also loved the quirky, giant chicken sculptures that seem to pop up on every corner, adding a fun and unique touch to the area.

    Make sure to grab a refreshing mojito while you're there—it’s the perfect way to cool off while soaking in the sights. Watching people hand-roll cigars was a fascinating experience. The craftsmanship and skill involved are truly impressive, and it’s such a cool part of the local culture.

    Overall, Little Havana offers an unforgettable blend of music, food, and culture. Definitely worth checking out when you're in Miami!

    Excellent spot with its art themed large streets and food heaven in Miami. Contemporary art as it's finest, best creativity murals as you can enjoy.

    We rode the trolley the full loop through little Havana so we could get a good idea of the layout and offerings. This is a good option to get a fairly quick overview of an area. It’s free so you can’t be too picky. The ride was a little rough and both trolley’s we rode, could use a cleaning. If you’re looking for a tour, this is not it. This is basic transportation.

    I visited here both days I was in Miami. It’s a nice spot to walk but it’s not a huge area. It leads to Bayside Marketplace from downtown and overlooks the water and port. There was some evidence of rough sleeping in the park but that’s not a shock and it wasn’t intrusive.

    Bricked City Center is a well–decorated high–end shopping mall. It is a great place to walk ,shop and people watch. We are pleasantly impressed by the stores.

    I like to check out a nice residential area when I go to a new city--just to get a feel for the place. Coconut Grove was a nice respite from the high rise condo feel that predominates in much of the city. It has a good neighborhood vibe and makes for a nice stroll.

    Loved this! Not a massive mall but the shops are great and the experience was really nice. Easy to get to from South Beach as well which is a bonus. Got a load of bargains

    Fabulous way to get a snapshot of Miami central. Clean, good signage and maps and helpful staff. Felt like the sort of travel of the future that Disney imagined, great fun!

    I visit Coco Walk on every opportunity at least once every trip to Miami. It is a very nice place to walk and shop, dine or just have a good time.

    This is a fantastic little museum which is an absolute must see when you take in Little Havana.

    On arrival we were greeted by a staff member who took us through the exhibits and talked through the history of the Bay of Pigs invasion - right from Cuba's fight for independence from foreign rule in the late 1800s, its prosperity as a republic through to the late 1950s, and the coup d'Ă©tat which ultimately paved the way for Castro to usurp power.

    We learned a huge amount about Cuba as a whole and the tragically unsuccessful Bay of Pigs landing, all thanks to the informative exhibits and especially the enthusiasm of the staff, who were open to all the questions we had and were passionate about sharing Cuba's history with us as visitors from the UK.
