Phoenix and Tim's Favorite Places in Coconut Grove, Coral Gables and Miami


-Check out the Wynwood Walls or the Museum of Graffiti in Miami's cultural and creative hub, Wynwood. Visit Panther Coffee for a strong brew!

-Fancy a trip to the beach? Matheson Hammock Park has a nice beach area, as does Crandon Park Beach. If you can stomach the parking situation or manage to get there early, South Beach is unparalleled for its people watching and sun bathing. Take the MacArthur causeway and drive towards the water.

-Visit Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, which was Chicago industrialist James Deering's winter home.

-Want to get cozy with a book and glass of wine? Visit Phoenix and Tim's favorite Miami bookstore, Books & Books. There are 2 locations: Coral Gables and Coconut Grove.

-Have lunch at Green Street Cafe, one of Phoenix and Tim's favorite lunch spots in Coconut Grove.

-If you're wanting some shopping time, visit Coconut Grove's newest shopping mall - CocoWalk.

-If you didn't see enough of Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden on Friday night, we highly encourage you to return and stroll around the park's beautiful grounds at your own leisure and with a bit more peace and quiet. The Butterfly Garden is a must-see.
