Nice tall buildings, bad shops and nothing to do. The view at night is great with less traffic. Bayside and American Airlines Arena are close by, but if you are not going to those places, you may wanto to drive around the area.

Enjoyed the setup of the park, the water in the bay, boats etc. There was venders in the area with their wares.

Right next to the beach. All sorts of shops, restaurants, cafes, everything you can think of, everythings right there. Definitely very crowded. But an interesting place specially with that beautiful beach in vicinity.

We visited bayfront park and parked in the garage and that was even over priced-for parking?? Although the view is nice, it's not worth the parking headaches nor... More

OK, I will pay you not to have to go there! traffic at 3 mph, hot homeless everywhere dirty crowded... Rather be stuck in an elevator with 4 llamas! OMG!!! Why would you want to go there?! Awful!
