Miami Travel Forum

Hi,

I'm due to be arriving in Miami in a couple of weeks and am staying at the Ramada hotel on Hollywood Beach. I was hoping that someone could tell me what the best public transport based option of getting down into the city centre (or south beach) is ??

I definitely won't be hiring a car as I've prob only got 2 half days free in the 5 days that I'm there, but was hoping to find out how to head off on my own during those half days to get into the city to see some sights.

Any advice is welcome !!

Thanks in advance,
Darren

public transport is limited, never used in years..lvng there. tri rail is a train service from palm beach to miami, then there is the monorail to downtown miami, and buses.other than that is taxi.
Hollywood Beach is in Broward County north of the famous South Beach who is in Miami-Dade County. You might one to go to Las Olas in FT lauderdale beach who is a very nice lively area too,and closer to your hotel. Ramada should tell you how to get all these places as you are staying there.

It will be cheaper and easier to rent a car for a day or two to drive down to South Beach than to take very expensive cab rides to and from there. You could probably cobble together a combination of public transportation segments to get you there, but it will probably not be simple or convenient.
