A few good questions.
A few good questions.Is Miami the same as Miami Beach?
No. They are separate cities connected by causeways. Plan a mainland day and a beach day instead of repeatedly crossing the water.
Can I do this without luxury spending?
Yes. Start with ICA’s free admission, public architecture, neighborhood walks and a coffee window. Check whether a specific exhibition, tour or event needs a ticket.
What should I do with my phone?
Save the route, then leave your phone in your bag, purse or pocket. IRL means IN REAL LIFE. Ask before photographing people.
Is every studio open to visitors?
No. Go to an advertised public exhibition, open studio or workshop. A working space is not a standing invitation.
How do I move between neighborhoods?
Use Miami-Dade Transit’s current trip planner for Metrorail, Metromover and buses. The free Metromover serves Downtown and Brickell; it does not go to Miami Beach.
FYI: heat, rain and water get a vote.
Check the forecast, plan indoor stops and breaks, and follow posted beach or boating guidance. Bring water and respect closed areas.
