Miami Beach’s Stretching ten miles, these connected islands, which were named the "sun and fun capital of the world" by Jackie Gleason, are separated from Miami by a 3-mile expanse of the shimmering water of Biscayne Bay. Since the days of the Honeymooners and "away we go," this Atlantic coastline community has undergone a "sandlift" which restored this paradise to its tropical glory.
If you are lucky enough to live in one of the southernmost condominiums of Miami Beach, you can watch the luxury cruise ships begin and end their voyages! The famed Art Deco Historic District features Streamline Modern as well as Art Deco styles in the one-square mile area that contains these architectural treasures.
Further north of Miami Beach, young professional families are attracted by the Spanish Mediterranean Revival styles that date back to the twenties. Waterfront mansions and elegant estates with private docks attract the "rich and famous."
Recreational opportunities abound and cultural opportunities are plentiful and varied in Miami Beach. The population of nearly 100,000 residents enjoy the many parks, community centers, golf courses, tennis facilities and of course, public beaches.
