South Beach, Miami (A Topless Beach and More!)

South Beach, Miami is a thriving mecca of artists, fashion, models, nightlife, boutiques, fine restaurants and much more! Weather cruising down Ocean Drive or shopping on Lincoln Avenue there's no shortage of things to do and see.
Along with it's booming nightlife scene South Beach is also known for its colorful lifeguard stands and its tolerance of topless sunbathing. I'm not sure if it's actually legal but it's been the norm here for almost 20 years so go out and get your sunburn on!



There are also well maintained paths and decks that follow miles of white sandy beach, making it easy to walk to the Beach, Ocean Drive or your hotel.

Other South Beach events include Urban Beach Week, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Miami, Miami International Film Festival, Miami Fashion Week, Miami Marathon.

Daytona Beach Bike Week!

Bike Week at Daytona Beach is always a good time and it's always packed by early afternoon (provided it's not raining). Bike week is actually a 10 day event starting in early March. It starts at the beach on goes all the way down Main Street right through the heart of Daytona Beach. There's also a large bike builder and vender location at the Daytona International Speedway.

Bike Week has approximately 500,000 visitors each year! So I suggest getting there early if you can, especially if you're taking a car. Street, lot and garage parking is available all around town.

Bike Week is jam packed with things to do and see, from bike builders, venders, bike raffles, bikini contests, races and more!  But the best thing about Bike Week is the people watching.  




Also lookout for Biketoberfest, another Daytona Beach bike fest!
