Experience Miami's Beaches
As the name implies, Miami Beach is the place to be if the beach is your true vacation calling. At the Cardozo, you’re never more than a block away from white sands, sparkling blue surf, and a killer tan. Though South Beach tends to get all the glory, other Miami beaches are equally awe-inspiring.
Stay Steps from the Beach
At Cardozo South Beach, you're just steps from Miami's iconic South Beach. Walk across Ocean Drive through Lummus Park, where you'll find beach access points opening up to an expansive white-sand beach bordered by the azure blue water of the Atlantic Ocean.
Every room at Cardozo comes with complimentary beach service, which includes:
- Two Beach Chairs
- Beach Umbrella (Additional Charge)
Simply relax in the Florida sun, splash in the Atlantic, or go on a water sport adventure! It's all an option on Miami Beach.
Beaches in Miami - Our Top Picks
Each Miami beach is as unique as the next. Colorful lifeguard stands, historic districts, bars and restaurants, and even state parks surround the beaches, offering diverse experiences beyond the sand. South Beach may be the closest beach to Cardozo, but it’s not the only beach at your disposal.
Dip your toes in the shallow waters of North Miami Beach. Embark on watersports at Haulover Park. Explore the lush natural setting of Oleta River State Park Beach. Or simply cross over Ocean Drive to soak in the sun on South Beach.
Whether your vacation dream is to be a total beach bum or all you really want to do is see one, Cardozo has you covered. Treat yourself to a quintessential Miami Beach experience—heavy on the beach, of course.
#1 - Miami Beach - South Beach
Direct Access from The Cardozo | Cross Streets: Ocean Drive & 5th Street to Collins Avenue & 21st Street
Cross Ocean Drive from The Cardozo, and after just a few steps you'll find yourself on the sands of South Beach. This beach is world-renowned for a reason. Its white sands are perfect for catching some Miami sun, and the clear blue waters are just begging you to make a splash.
#2 - Miami Beach - Central
Collins Avenue from 21st St. to 46th St., Miami Beach
This stretch of sand is a bit further from The Cardozo, and no longer South Beach as you know it. Miami Beach Central, sometimes called MidBeach, is characterized by upscale condos, trendy eateries, and quieter beaches than you might find in South Beach.
#3 - Miami Beach - North
Collins Avenue from 46th St. to 78th St., Miami Beach
North is the last of Miami Beach beaches. Miami Beach North tends to be more family friendly, thanks to its peaceful beaches and tree-filled parks. There are also a number of playgrounds along the way that make for a nice break from the sand and surf.
#4 - Bal Harbour Beach
Collins Avenue from 96th St. to Haulover Inlet, Bal Harbour
Head just a half an hour up Collins Avenue from The Cardozo to find a completely different beach experience. Bal Harbour Beach feels exclusive and upscale, making it an exciting day trip. Head up to Bal Harbour to lounge on the beach, then peruse the area's high-end boutiques and restaurants.
#5 - Haulover Beach
10800 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach
Haulover Beach is one of the areas most accessible seashores for its parking, restrooms, concessions, rentals, and more. Though it is family friendly, it also boasts a feature that sets it apart from other Miami beaches—it's a nude beach. According to Visit Florida, Haulover Beach is Florida's oldest officially-recognized nude beach and one of the top 10 nude beaches in the world.
