Fun on the island doesn't end with watersports, tourist attractions, and entertainment-- oh no, it doesn't!

At Bay Harbor Islands, food isn't just a sidestep-- it's a full-on destination!

Boasting proximity to Bal Harbour, Miami Beach, and Aventura, it's not surprising that Bay Harbor Islands is a famous Miami food spot and a proud home to some of the best restaurants in Miami-Dade county. 

And since it's also conveniently located near the city's tourist-ridden neighborhoods, it's easy to go back and forth to explore other famous restaurants and food spots from nearby areas

And the massive list of choices? 

I don't think any destination could compete!

Peruvian, Italian, Classic American, Vegan, Asian-- you name it, this town has it-- or its nearby neighborhoods will!

You may even need to stay for a few weeks to finish eating from all of these wonderful coffee shops, diners, and joints!

Or maybe, a lifetime? *wink*

But don't forget-- most, if not all, restaurants within Bay Harbor Islands offer a picturesque view, so be sure to bring a lot of IG-worthy outfits for that perfect shot!

Dining with a view-- and delicious food? 

Yes, I'm in!

Here are the Top 5 Eats to try while you're here. (in no particular order)
