Top 5 Things To Do in Eastern Shores

 Rendezvous on a sun-soaked escapade bursting with waterfront tranquility and lively zing of the city as you dive into the suburban charm of Eastern Shores, a hidden paradise with all the perks of North Miami Beach and beyond!  

Relish the allure of Eastern Shores, an exclusive North Miami Beach community surrounded by pristine canals, a stone's throw away from Magic City's buzz and Sunny Isles' golden beaches. 

Perfectly positioned between urban excitement and the relaxed vibes of the Atlantic coast, Eastern Shores offers the best of both worlds — one of Miami's best-kept coastal secrets, as locals like to put it.

Sure, Eastern Shores may not be as well-known as some of Miami's more famous neighborhoods, and it's not exactly a travel destination, per se.

 We'll go far enough to say it might not even hit any tourist radars! 

But, once you step into its lush grounds, you'll find that it more than makes up for it with its unique blend of luxury, leisure, and laid-back living.  

You see, just outside its noble gateways, there's a premier selection of waterfront dining options, shopping, and outdoor activities waiting, proving that Eastern Shores has all the makings of your next favorite getaway spot — if you know where to look!

 So, if you're ready to discover a side of Miami, read on as we show you how FUN should be done in Eastern Shores! 

 Here are the top five things you can do while you're here: 

 (1) 

While you won't see a restaurant or a fast-food joint in sight, setting sail on a culinary voyage (see what we did there?) is only moments away from Eastern Shores — literally!

In fact, as soon as you leave the comforts of home, you'll find yourself surrounded by some of the best dining experiences in Miami, thanks to North Miami Beach's vast collection of restaurants and delicious eats!

Yes, foodies, you won't need to travel far for a nice hot meal or a heaping scoop of your favorite ice cream flavor — this coastal sanctuary has you covered!

We're talking everything from cozy, tucked-away spots to chic waterfront restaurants where clinking glasses blend with the gentle lapping of waves — Eastern Shores is your gateway to everything DELICIOUS about Magic City!

Whether you're in the mood for a quick bite, a gourmet meal, or something sweet, the options are as diverse as they are delicious. 

So, go ahead and indulge — great food is always within reach!

Much like restaurants, finding a shopping mall in Eastern Shores is a no-go since it's one of North Miami Beach's most exclusive enclaves.

But beyond its gates?

Well, THAT is a different story.

You see, shopping around Eastern Shores is like going on a treasure hunt, but instead of dusty relics, you're unearthing stylish finds and fabulous deals.

Take  Intracoastal Mall , for instance.

A quick hop from your front door, North Miami Beach's Intracoastal Mall boasts all the essentials. 

Need to stock up on groceries? Check. 

Looking for a last-minute outfit? Done. 

Whether you're in the mood for some light retail therapy or want to wander the stores, this spot lets you grab everything you need without straying too far from home.

For those who crave a bit more luxury,  Aventura Mall  is just around the corner, ready to spoil you with its array of high-end stores, trendy boutiques, and enough shoe options to make your closet burst at the seams. 

It's the kind of retail destination where you can go in for "just one thing" and come out with bags full of everything you didn't know you needed.

Last but not least (definitely far from it!) is the  Bal Harbour Shops , a mecca of luxury shopping perfect for those moments when you're feeling too fancy for your own good. 

Stroll through the beautifully landscaped open-air mall, peek into designer stores, and maybe even treat yourself to something shiny — it's all part of the signature Bal Harbour Shops experience.

Happy hunting!

Sure, the Instagram-worthy waterfront views are great and all, but what if you want to kick the R&R up a notch?

Friends and our dear workaholics, don't fret!

When you feel like galivanting the day's stress away, you'll find a plethora of nearby spots to help you unwind and find your zen around Eastern Shores!

For one, the  Oleta River State Park , just a stone's throw away, is a sprawling oasis boasting the perfect spot for intense nature therapy. 

Paddling through the mangroves, taking a leisurely bike ride, or lounging on the quiet beach — Oleta makes the world slow down just for you.

Meanwhile, if your idea of relaxation leans more toward pampering,  Exhale Spa  at the nearby Ritz-Carlton Bal Harbour is the perfect retreat. 

Imagine yourself sinking into a luxurious massage or rejuvenating facial while the stress melts away like ice on a hot Miami day — Exhale Spa takes "me time" to a new level, leaving you feeling like a brand-new person.

With peaceful parks and luxurious spas so close by, unwinding has never been easier (or more enjoyable). 

So, go ahead and treat yourself — in Eastern Shores, it's a requirement!

 (4) 

Is Eastern Shores a secluded paradise?

Well, not exactly.

While it is, indeed, one of North Miami Beach's most prized gated communities, Eastern Shores is also your launchpad to a few of the best destinations across North Miami Beach and Miami in general.

In fact, most famous tourist spots are just a quick train or bus ride from home — that is if you don't feel like hauling a car on your trip!

First on the list is the  Ancient Spanish Monastery , a famous reconstructed monastery dating back to 1133 AD, where visitors transport themselves back to 12th-century Spain or feel like they've gone on a day trip to Europe!

With its stunning medieval architecture and peaceful gardens, you can almost hear history whispering through the stone walls.

If art is more your style, the  Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA)  packs a punch with its ever-changing exhibits and installations from local and international artists. 

Get lost in thought, inspiration, and maybe even a few abstract sculptures — at MOCA, beautiful art masterpieces are your birthright!

And don't forget that communities like Aventura, Bal Harbour, and Sunny Isles Beach are only minutes from Eastern Shores!

If your feet are still itching for more adventure, new experiences are just a heartbeat away!

What's your poison for the day?

Do you feel like going on an arcade escapade or doing something a little less PG?

Whatever floats your boat (another pun you can't blame us!), Eastern Shores will have it served on a silver platter!

For a more family-friendly vibe, look to  Dezerland Park Miami , a massive indoor entertainment complex with a plethora of fun activities for all ages!

Explore the gorgeous classic car selections, including vehicles from famous movies and TV shows like the Batmobile, James Bond cars, and vehicles from "The Fast and the Furious" series, and pop culture memorabilia — it's a must-visit for car enthusiasts and movie buffs!

Dezerland Park Miami also offers an extensive arcade area, Go-Kart racing, bowling, an indoor trampoline park, mini-golf, a Ninja Warrior course, and virtual reality experiences, so you'll never run out of things to keep you busy while you're here!

Now, if you're more of a drink-and-clink type, head to  Duffy's Sports Grill , a spot to catch the big game while enjoying classic American fare.

Duffy's also has a gorgeous waterfront patio where you share a party platter with the gang while savoring the surreal ambiance — and a few bottles of national and international brews!

And that's just the tip of the iceberg!

From indoor adventures to thrilling nights out, keeping the exciting vibe alive in Eastern Shores will never be too far away.
