Miami Airport Car Rental & Travel Information

Miami is one of the world’s top holiday destinations and is known for great weather, great beaches and great nightlife.  It is a great place for families to take a much needed break together and tourists of all ages will find something to do there.  Car hire is one of the best ways to get to all the attractions, particularly those located outside the city.

Florida is filled with great places to go shopping and Miami’s Miracle Mile can be found in the Coral Gables area. This is a very fashionable area and a great place to find a designer bargain, an antique or something unique from one of the independent stores.  Museums are plentiful in the city and the Metro-Dade Cultural Centre is perfect for those who want to find out more about the history of the region as well as being home to the public library.    

Alternatively, car rental can take you to the Bill Baggs Cape Florida Park where you can indulge in fishing or hiking.  Families can enjoy a picnic together or simply relax on a beach which is considered to be one of North America’s finest.  One of the main attractions here is the Cape Florida Lighthouse which dates back around 200 years and where visitors can take a guided tour.  The open-air cafe is popular and the views are not to be missed.

Those who have taken advantage of the great Miami car hire rates can head out to Homestead to Coral Castle.  This is an unusual attraction in that it is the work of one man who spent 20 years carving the coral rock to create the castle.  Art lovers will also enjoy the Martin Z Margulies Sculpture Park which can be found within the campus of Florida International University.  There are tours available so that visitors can find out more from one of the knowledgeable guides and as it is free of charge it is a great low-cost day out.

Miami is also a great place to be for those who are interested in sports.  The Flagler Dog Track and Sports Entertainment Centre can be found in the heart of the city and visitors can pop in to the casino, spend time in the games room or watch the greyhound racing.  This attraction is open from June to November each year.  Alternatively, make the most of car rental to head out to Dolphin Stadium.  This is the home to the Miami Dolphins American Football team and even if sports are not to your liking, the stadium is also a popular venue for concerts.

Miami car rental is cost-effective and convenient and the ideal solution for those who are visiting the area with children.  There is no waiting for public transport and the only timetable that matters is your own.
