Where to Catch the City’s Most Magical Golden Hours
There’s something unforgettable about a Miami sunset. The way the sky turns peach, pink, and orange over the ocean or skyline — it’s the perfect way to end the day, no matter what your itinerary holds.
Whether you’re with a loved one, a group of friends, or flying solo, here are some of the top spots to catch the sunset during your stay.
1. South Pointe Park
South Beach
This park at the southernmost tip of Miami Beach offers sweeping views of the ocean, Fisher Island, and passing cruise ships. Walk the pier, relax on the grass, or grab a seat at Smith & Wollensky’s outdoor patio for dinner with a view.
2. The Rusty Pelican
Key Biscayne
This iconic waterfront restaurant offers one of the most dramatic sunset views in the city. Dine outdoors and enjoy the downtown skyline lighting up as the sun dips behind it.
3. Bayfront Park
Downtown Miami
Right in the heart of downtown, Bayfront Park faces Biscayne Bay with plenty of open space for a casual stroll or a romantic moment. The nearby Ferris wheel offers a bird’s-eye view at golden hour.
4. Matheson Hammock Park
Coral Gables
This hidden gem features a quiet beach lagoon and palm-lined walkways — ideal for couples or families looking for a peaceful sunset spot away from the crowds.
5. Watson Island & the Miami Children’s Museum Lot
MacArthur Causeway
Not just for kids — the parking area here gives an incredible skyline view as the sun sets behind the buildings. A great photo opportunity that’s still relatively undiscovered.
6. Dinner Key Marina
Coconut Grove
Coconut Grove’s waterfront is made for golden hour. Grab a bench along the marina or head to Monty’s for happy hour drinks as sailboats float by under the fading sun.
7. Your Vacation Rental Balcony or Rooftop
EroRentals Properties
Sometimes the best sunset spot is the one you don’t have to leave. Many of our vacation rentals feature private balconies, patios, or rooftop decks with skyline or bay views — perfect for watching the sky change colors in your robe, drink in hand.
Bonus Tip: Time It Right
Sunset times shift throughout the year. During summer months, expect it between 7:45–8:15 PM; in winter, it’s closer to 5:30–6:00 PM. We recommend arriving 30–45 minutes early to settle in and enjoy the full golden hour experience.
