Top 5 Date Spots in Mid Beach

1) Bask in the sea of blues and greens at Collins Park

2100 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33140

Start your beachside morning with an escape to the sea of greens and blues at Collins Park, a bucolic respite populated with Baobab and palm trees, perfect for a romantic morning stroll!

Centrally located off 21st Street on the cusp of South Beach and Mid Beach, Collins Park, despite its tiny size, offers a serene space for couples looking for some quiet time away from the beach and a few public art installations to explore, like Ugo Rondinone's 8th Magic Mountain, and others from Jim Drain, Sylvie Fleury, Lawrence Weiner, and Susan Philipsz!

And since the beach is only a few steps away, you and your date can jump in the water anytime!

How's that for your main starter?
