Fill your 'gram with snaps of an unparalleled beach lifestyle right on the white sandy stretches of South of Fifth, South Beach's residential paradise and one of Miami Beach's best-kept secrets!
Occupying the southern tip of Miami Beach, stretching southward from 5th Street to the bayfront at beautiful South Pointe Park, wedged between the Atlantic Ocean, Biscayne Bay, and Government Cut, is the neighborhood of South of Fifth, or SoFi, as locals lovingly call it.
Boasting a more relaxed and peaceful vibe amidst the continuous stimulation found further north, SoFi features impressive high-rise condo towers, low-rise residences, and restored Art Deco buildings at every corner, along with stretches of white, sugary sand, turquoise water lapping the shore, and tall palm trees swaying in the breeze that serves as a welcome pause from the fast-paced SoBe lifestyle.
So if you prefer a beach destination with a more family-friendly, low-key scene without sacrificing easy access to the fun chaos of South Beach and Miami Beach's top Instagram hotspots, needless to say, SoFi is the REAL DEAL!
Here are the top five Instagrammable places in South of Fifth (SoFi).
1) Canopy Park
701 West Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139
As they say, there's no ecosystem on Earth quite like Florida's with its ancient mangroves, towering palms, and myriad displays of colorful, fragrant botanicals, and at South of Fifth's Five Park, you'll have all that and more right outside your front door!
Say hello to Canopy Park, a three-acre lush paradise blooming between the 600 and 700 blocks of Alton Road!
At Canopy Park, you'll have open greenspaces shaded by native tree species, pedestrian trails and bike paths, an outdoor gym, a dog run, an expansive children's playground, and public art installations to pose with for your snaps.
The Canopy Park also boasts a botanic grove of Florida's native trees and plants, including over 600 orchids (a backyard oasis, if I say so myself) and contextual and climbable sculptures promising to delight and amaze children and adults alike!
Who can resist this beauty?
2) PLANTA

3) Big Pink
157 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139
It's eye-catching, charming, and PINK-- need I say more?
Welcome to Big Pink, Myles Chefetz's take on the retro diner experience right on the glorious sands of South of Fifth!
Opened in December 1996, Big Pink features 200+ items on the menu, including the Big Pink TV Dinner, a selection of daily specials served on a stainless steel tray, capturing the vibes of a stereotypical American diner we've all grown to love!
And no, the food here ISN'T PINK (thankfully!), but it's pretty darn good!
An all-hours scene, signature pink Volkswagen Beetles, and delicious classic American dishes?
It's a yes to all, please!
