2026 Miami Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in March)

Miami Pranburi or Tal Sam Ton . A check-in point that you must come to take a picture when you come to Pranburi 📷 . Located at the mouth of the Pran River 🌊 . We arrived when the sun was rising ☀️ . Because we wouldn't meet many people. If it's in the morning or evening on a holiday, there will be a lot of people queuing up. Facing the popular palm trees is good. Facing the sea is also beautiful. 🤍 If you go to Pran, don't forget to stop by. 📍 https://goo.gl/maps/8FGBv2tmcjVHrEwz9 #Tal Sam Ton #Pranburi #Miami of Thailand #Pak Nam Pran #Prachuap #Pranburi Check-in Point #Tal 3 Ton #miamibeach #Like to invite and go #Herewego #Like to travel

Ready for a laid-back foodie adventure? 🍻 while on the Gold Coast I hit up Padre Brewing Company! This place has all the makings of a hot new spot, especially for beer fans—but don’t worry if you’re not thrilled by hops. Their cocktails and wine menu is top tier, so there’s something for everyone. Must-See Spot: Padre Beer Brewing Company Address: 9 Ozone Parade, Miami QLD 4220 Open: Most days from noon till late (check latest hours online) What makes this spot shine? The beer options are wild, but the food is next level. We had a chicken schnitzel, fish tacos with a side of dipping sauce, salon, buffalo pizza —seriously, the sort of comfort food you want on repeat. But shout-out goes to their cheesy toast… Yes, it genuinely rivals the iconic one from Sizzler! 🧀🍞 The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, perfect for casual hangs or just chilling with some seriously good eats. It’s easy to find and there’s nearby parking, which is gold on the Gold Coast. The staff are also very accomodation and friendly! #GoldCoastEats #MiamiHotSpot #PadreBeer #FoodieFinds #AustraliaFood

Wonderful place to stay. Cozy, remodeled 2-bedroom unit with a beachfront view and all the essentials. Tim, the manager, is fantastic and ensures you have a pleasant stay. Peaceful and relaxing—really enjoyed the spa and pool. Just a short stroll to a coffee and breakfast spot.

Miami, Gold Coast, Australia not only has sunshine and beaches, but also has super many hidden delicacies for you to discover! If you’re like me, travel is all about authentic delicacies, then Miami Fish Market is definitely not to be missed. Let me share my freshness experience with you: Explore the Australian fish market under the blue clear sky during the day, local fresh seafood is close at hand, reasonably priced, every bite is Australian-only fresh and sweet! 🌊Miami Fish Market is fresh The entire fish market is simple and bright in design, and the outdoors offers up close architectural views filled with sunlight. When you enter, the aquatic and meat cabinets are packed to the brim, and you can see that they are replenished every day. Whether it is oysters, scallops, salmon to various local fish, they are so fresh that they are mouth-watering! It really has a food charm that’s exclusive to Australia that can’t be replicated anywhere else. 🦞Food Recommendations & Tips As a seafood lover, I recommend must-try local oysters, and fresh-cut salmon (Australian salmon is really different from what you’re used to!) Raw shrimp is also a choice for many – ready-to-eat, endless aftertaste. You can talk to the boss on how to cook the best, and they are happy to share cooking tips. 📍Miami Fish Market Address: 2077 Gold Coast Hwy, Miami QLD 4220 Opening hours: Monday to Sunday 8:00-18:00 (It is recommended to go morning to noon, plenty of choice and fresh, avoid the evening rush) ✨Itinerary Tips 1. The fish market is near Miami Beach, it is recommended that after eating seafood, you can walk back along the coast, sunbathing, next time remember to bring a swimsuit, eat and play a Take over super chill. 2. There are several hand-brewed coffee shops near the fish market. 3. Loser Strategy: If you have a cooler bag and insulated bag, it is recommended to bring your own, you can take more seafood back to the hotel to slowly sip. 4. In addition to aquatic products, there are plenty of meat options for BBQ and enjoyment with friends. 🍽️ Transportation & Food Plus For transportation, it only takes 10-15 minutes to drive from Surfers Paradise to Miami Fish Market. #GoldCoastSeafoodStrategy #AustralianLocalAquaculture #MiamiFishMarketReview #EatIsmportantToTravel #sunnyday

I recently spent a week at Mariner Shores. This is hands-down the Best Timeshare Resort in Australia. It's the perfect place to park your car and enjoy your vacation without needing to drive anywhere. There's plenty to do at the resort, and a week there will leave you eager to return. The beach is just across the road, and everything you need for a great holiday is within walking distance. The staff are cheerful, and the new manager, Jimmy, is revitalizing the resort. Contented Owners.

The caravan park is fantastic—immaculately clean and located right on the Miami Beach shore. Our family immediately felt at ease because of the lovely and welcoming people. The BBQ area, laundry facilities, and bathrooms are all excellent. Both the surf club and Picolos Cafe are conveniently on-site. This place is the ultimate getaway. Much appreciation to Bec and Peter. 🏝️

Our family was thrilled with this exceptional caravan park, located directly on the Miami Beach coast. We instantly relaxed, thanks to the wonderful and welcoming folks around. The BBQ area, laundry, and bathrooms were immaculate. With the surf club and Picolos Cafe on-site, it was the perfect getaway. Heartfelt thanks to Bec and Peter for making it special. 🏝️

Wonderful small park situated perfectly near the beach. The staff were friendly and went out of their way to keep everything clean. Sites were large and nicely cared for. Thoughtful extras like toys for kids, laundry irons, and a basket for pegs were appreciated. Pricing was fair (outside of school holidays) compared to other parks nearby. Shops and restaurants were conveniently close by. This was the top park of our two-month journey!

#TravelTactics Australia is home to breweries everywhere. This time, I'll introduce two recommended ones in the Gold Coast (Miami) area. Both are within walking distance. ✨ 🍺Black Hopes Brewery 📍15 Gardenia Grove, Burleigh Heads QLD 4220 Here, you can order a beer tasting. They also have fruity beers that are easy to drink even for those who don't like ginger, so it's a great way to enjoy a variety of beers in small batches! If you come to Australia, be sure to try ginger beer. ☺️ 🥃Grandad Jack's Craft Distillery 📍45 Lemana Ln, Miami QLD 4220 Here, you can sample gin. If you find something you like, you can purchase it. The cocktail menu is extensive, so it was hard to choose, but I decided to go for the tasting! Be sure to stop by! ☀️ #AustralianBeer #Tasting #GoldCoast #GoldCoastTrip

If you're looking for a laid-back beach lifestyle on the Gold Coast, we recommend the Miami area! ⛱️ 🔸Area Overview The Miami area of ​​the Gold Coast is a tranquil beachside residential area located approximately 7km south of Surfers Paradise. It's a perfect location for a relaxing getaway, slightly removed from the hustle and bustle of the tourist scene, yet close enough to the action. It's a quiet residential area with many vacation homes, ensuring excellent public safety. Coles, ALDI, a liquor store, and fast food restaurants are within walking distance, and the bus stop offers easy access to Surfers Paradise and other destinations via the airport or tram. (Each takes about an hour.) 🔸Transportation Bus and trams are the primary modes of transportation. You can also rent a Lime bicycle and ride along the beach. 🔸What to do ・A walk along the beach ・A picnic ・Café hopping ・Shopping at Pacific Fair Shopping Centre (about a 6-minute bus ride) ・Taking an Uber to the suburban outlet mall ・Surfing experience *This experience is mostly shallow, so even beginners should be able to do it!◎ ・UGG factory outlet ・Dinner at Surfers Paradise ・Amusement park ・Buy ingredients at the supermarket and cook at home, etc. A little-known but highly recommended spot🔥 #Australia #GoldCoast #GirlsTrip #TravelGuide #SummerCampaign

If you go to the Gold Coast, please stop by🌼 #GoldCoast #Australia

#Let'sGoOverseas When you go to the Gold Coast, you should definitely go to the beach✨ The morning and evening views are both so beautiful that you'll forget about time.

Gold Coast has a warm climate in Australia. With its sea, nature, and many tourist attractions, this place is a resort like Okinawa for Japanese people🏝️✨ For dinner, I recommend Miami Marketer! It's fun with lots of food stalls lined up, and it's a covered market, so you can enjoy it rain or shine🫶🌈 #solotravel #australia #goldcoast #100travelstyles #christmas #nightmarket2024
