Miramar offers chilled-out family vacations
Miramar isn't your raucous Floridian party town. Nor is it a loop-de-loop-topped theme park destination. Nor is it a cultural hotpot like Little Havana or Miami Beach. But it is within striking distance of all of the above, not to mention the endless hammocks and croc-spotted wildernesses of the Florida Everglades, and the cotton-white sands that fringe the Atlantic Coast just a little to the east. The result is a range of Miramar vacation rentals that are perfect for families vacationing in the Magic City, complete with pools, palm-shaded porches, and good links to nearby attractions.
Between the Everglades and the beaches
Miramar vacation rentals offer a chilled stay in one of the quieter corners of Florida's rambunctious Magic City. That means you can have a great night's sleep here before hitting the sands of lively Hollywood Beach or Miami Beach in the day. It will also leave you wide awake for those trips to the famous Florida Everglades and for when it comes to meeting the macaques and lemurs of the Jungle Island zoo, riding the twirling slides of the Miami Shores Aquatic Center, or purring the go karts on the local GP Raceway.
Miami is on your doorstep in Miramar
Aside from a couple of large-scale outlet malls and a smattering of leafy suburban parks, the joys of Miramar are located in nearby towns. You could head east to kick back on sunny beachfronts with volleyball courts and mojito bars. You could make for the waters of the Atlantic Ocean to hop on fishing charters and spot dolphin pods out at sea. There's also always airboating excursions or flyovers to wonder at the majesty of the Florida Everglades, or family-friendly waterparks and local zoos packed with tropical creatures.
Seasonal weather in Miramar
If warm-weather activities are high on your list, August, July, September and June are the hottest months to visit, when temperatures average 86°F.
Wedged into southern Florida in Miramar
Miramar is wedged into a small suburban pocket on the southern side of the Florida Peninsula. Beaches are one of its main natural draws, and they fringe the whole area just a little to the east, from the powdery sands of Hollywood to the bar-backed reaches of Miami Beach. However, it's on the other side of town that the real wildernesses make their home. Cue the Florida Everglades, which come with misty bayous, dense thickets of cypress trees, vine-clad hammocks, sawgrass prairies, snapping gators, leopard frogs, storks, fawns, and oodles, oodles more.
