Best Times to Visit Miami
The best time to visit Miami is between March and May. During these months, you'll be able to enjoy daily temperatures in the 70s for non-peak rates, while the rest of the country is still defrosting. The year-round tropical climate and partying ways of nearby Miami Beach mean tourists — lots of tourists — from northern states, South America, Europe, Asia, anywhere and everywhere year-round.
