Bal Harbour Things to do
Beaches
As you would expect from an upmarket exclusive resort the beaches at Bal Harbour are second to none. Long stretches of pristine golden sands are lapped by the crystal clear warm Atlantic waters. Bal Harbour Beach exudes a tranquil relaxed atmosphere that is far cry from the more commercialised Florida beach resorts. If you are on holiday in Bal Harbour there is also easy access of other popular beaches including the famous Miami Beach.
Water Sports
Water sports in Bal Harbour and nearby Miami Beach can include jet-skiing, surfing, sailing, kayaking and parasailing. Scuba diving is one of the most popular sports in South Florida and the waters around Miami Beach hold over 80 wrecks including commercial freighters. There are many scuba diving centres that will provide lessons, equipment and excursions to the best dive centres in Miami Beach.
Sightseeing
Sightseeing from Bal Harbour will of course include Miami Beach; one of the most vibrant and colourful cities in Florida. South Beach, the art deco district of Ocean Drive and Lincoln Road are all famous Miami Beach locations, and will be instantly recognisable from many films. Miami Beach is awash with museums, art galleries, shopping opportunities and of course some of the best restaurants and nightlife options in Florida.
Cruises
Cruises are one of the best ways to explore South Florida. Holidaymakers can take boat trips to explore deserted beaches and swim with dolphins and manatees. The alligator filled Everglades and the stunning Florida Keys are trips that will provide lifetime memories. A boat cruise around Biscayne Bay can include spotting the multi million dollar homes of the rich and famous and provide amazing views over the Miami skyline.
Golf
Golf is a very popular sport in Bal Harbour and there are over 20 first class golf courses within 10 miles of Bal Harbour. Thanks to the spectacular climate a round of golf can be played all year round.
