Eat, beach, shower, repeat

Seriously, just that routine is super therapeutic.

If you're more adventurous you can go to some gorgeous botanical gardens, big or small, they're stunning there, or maybe watch the dolphins.

Unfortunately not, when we went as a family we chose other less expensive attractions (we were traveling with a bigger crowd though), which I later regretted.

It was in Miami. I'm sure you can find it online.

ETA: the best gardens we went to in Miami were actually free. It wasn't botanical gardens that has a small fee but smth else, I cant find info.

It's very hot this time of year for botanical gardens. Fairchild Tropical Gardens in Miami is the best, in my opinion.

Photographer - Arthur Aminov does beautiful work and he is very reasonable.

We like to sit in the back of Miami Childrens Museum
980 MacArthur Causeway, Miami, FL 33132

We bring a picnic and eat there at dusk. It is beautiful, breezy and we usually see dolphins there.

We went to the zoo in winter and hated how awfully hot it was there with practically zero shade.

I'm going to miami beach this weekend. Can anyone recommend a hotel, that would be accommodating for shabbos. I'm traveling with kids. Tia
