What it's like

Wynwood's warehouses are covered in murals, and the Wynwood Walls park showcases work by street artists from around the world. Galleries, breweries, taco spots and late-night bars fill the streets around NW 2nd Avenue, and the second-Saturday Art Walk draws big crowds. The Design District's luxury shops and Midtown's restaurants are just north.

It's a fun base for nightlife and art lovers who don't need the beach. Hotels are few, the streets are busy and loud at weekends, and you'll need a bus or rideshare to reach Downtown or Miami Beach.
