Little Havana

Taking a break from the American way of shopping is worth the try, and heading straight into Cuban culture on Calle Ocho is a guarantee to open up a whole new experience. Southwest 8th Street, or Calle Ocho as it's famously known, is the hub of the district, where you can indulge in a myriad of activities. From browsing through the countless shops and art galleries to savoring the rich flavors of Cuban coffee, or smoking an authentic Cuban cigar, the options are endless. Don't forget to take a stroll down the Calle Ocho Walk of Fame, which honors famous Latin celebrities who have made an impact in the entertainment industry.

Shopping

Whether you prefer outdoor shopping in a breezy environment, browsing megamalls with air-conditioned comfort, or exploring department stores, there are plenty of options to choose from in Miami. If you're looking for unique and stylish home decor, furniture, or art, the Design District and Collins Avenue in Miami Beach are the places to be. Meanwhile, Bal Harbour is the go-to spot for high-end designer boutiques, and Bayside Marketplace offers a classic shopping experience with popular chain stores. For a more exotic shopping experience, be sure to check out Little Havana or Española Way on Sunday afternoons.
