Coming to Miami is a good time all year round, but I live here, and the breezy humidity is great for me. Budget will have a big weight on when most people plan Miami vacations. 

Winter months are peak times to travel to Miami. Most of the “snowbirds” (people and birds from the north) fly south to visit or even move to South Florida during the winter months. November until March is considered “Winter” in Miami but it’s super nice and very comfortable most days. Yes, you can still go to the beach, and the water is warm. Most pools are heated, if not they will feel rather cool to south Floridians, but they may seem fine to visitors. 

Summer months are hot and humid, perfect for the pool or beach, but not so great for walking around, exploring, or going inland to places such as the Everglades. During peak months, you’ll expect a lot more traffic, more tourists, and more conferences, fairs, and trade shows – all of which drastically increases costs.
