Introduction

South Beach is so much more than restaurants, beaches and party people! It is also home to a neighborhood brimming with colorful history, culture, and Art Deco buildings. Strolling along famed Ocean Drive and nearby streets, you'll learn the history and what makes this style of architecture distinct from Deco buildings in other parts of the world. You'll literally walk away inspired that the buildings before you will no longer stand as just concrete structures but as relics of history and art. We will mostly walk outside throughout South Beach primarily between the 10th and 15th streets.
