Miami, one of the popular vacation destinations in Florida, was once called Biscayne Bay Country during its early years of development. It was renamed after the Native American tribe of Mayaimi, the 18th-century settlers of Lake Okeechobee. Today, it is a central city where various cultures converge. Its diversity in art, cuisine, and entertainment is what attracts tourists from all over the world. People come here to shop, eat at fancy restaurants, and enjoy the outdoors while living in opulence and surrounded by art. The city offers a lot of opportunities for outdoor sports and activities. Set sail from the Port of Miami and take a cruise around the Atlantic Ocean. Play golf or surround yourself with nature by visiting one of their 800+ parks. And don’t forget the best part - the beaches. Indulge in water activities, enjoy gorgeous sunsets, and play in the sand with your loved ones.
