Miami is renowned for its abundance of excellent shopping options. There are many shopping malls to pick from and we suggest the Bal Harbour Shops in the neighborhood of the same name, or the Village of Merrick Park in Coral Gables, pleasant options in which to spend your money and some relaxing time. Both have open-air sections, which makes shopping a lot more agreeable, as well as superior lunch and dining options for breaks or post shopping nourishment. Try Carpaccio and Makoto at Bal Harbour and Brasserie Central at Merrick, delicious food served in a likable atmosphere.
