South Pointe Park

South Pointe Park is a beautiful green space at the southern tip of Miami Beach. It offers stunning panoramic views of the South Beach shoreline, PortMiami’s cruise ships, Downtown Miami’s skyline and Fisher Island. The park has direct access to the beach as well as walking trails, picnic and barbecue areas, benches, a cafe and an off-leash bark park. There is also a mini water playground perfect for cooling off on a warm day, along with a jungle gym and lush landscaping. And best yet, Smith & Wollensky steakhouse is located in the park, with delicious dine-in and carry-out options.

Park Facilities

Sit and read a book while relaxing on one of the park benches, or rest your eyes under the many shady palm trees. For photo-worthy views, take a stroll along the 20-foot wide promenade and see Fisher Island across the water as yachts pass by, then continue on to South Pointe Pier. The motion-activated mini splash zone for kids, with water cannons, is located at the picnic and barbecue areas. There are several winding paths to take if you want to run, bike, rollerblade or skateboard. Keep in mind that bikes, rollerblades and skateboards are not allowed on the grass. Take your dog to the bark park on the western side of South Pointe Park for some off-leash fun (four-legged friends must be leashed in all other areas of the park).

South Pointe Pier

The 450-foot pier is a popular gathering spot for visitors and locals to fish and watch kayakers, surfers and Jet Skiers. It has viewing stations, turtle-safe lighting, recycling bins for fishing lines, and places to cut bait and wash freshly caught fish.

The Beach

Enjoy some quality time with your toes in the sand. The park’s beach has colorful lifeguard towers, and umbrella and beach chair rentals are available. This is a popular spot for locals to surf, play volleyball and paddle board. Pets are not allowed on the beach. Restrooms, outdoor showers and the South Pointe Cafe are located near the kids' splash pad. The cafe serves juice, hot coffee, chips, ice cream, granola bars and other refreshments.

Smith & Wollensky

Once you’ve worked up an appetite, head over to Smith & Wollensky steakhouse. Besides serving mouth-watering steak and amazing views, Smith & Wollensky offers shrimp, lobster, yellowfin tuna and salmon, to name a few. Enjoy with wine or a tropical cocktail. Online ordering, dine-in, delivery and takeout options are available. Outside and indoor seating are available. It’s a fine dining restaurant, so if you’re visiting after going to the beach you’ll need a change of clothes.
