Spend a Saturday in the “Magic City“.
Enjoying Miami at its best is waking up early before dawn to see the sunrise at South Beach, even though there are endless ways to spend your Saturday in Miami: the most beneficial and great way to start your day. A morning jog or a walk or even skating could be a great way to kick off your day. One of the easiest and pleasant is walking along Miami Beach Boardwalk, a wooden two miles walkway along the beach between 21st and 46th streets.
When you walk along South Beach Miami you’ll pass cafes, restaurants and shops on one side, perfect ocean views on the other side. If you woke up at the right time, you’ll see the perfect sunrise bright orange sky. The popular local spot where to watch the sunrise is South Pointe Park.

Dolce is a modern Italian restaurant that captures the effortless elegance of Fellini’s Rome of the 1960s. It opens at 7 am in the morning offering Italian and American typical breakfast menus.
