Parking in Miami turns out to be a huge challenge and often generates a return to stress despite being on vacation.
If you have never been to Miami, we tell you that parking your car on the street or in open spaces (“parking lots”) contemplates different rates depending on the area.
The city has 64 large parking spaces whose stations accept payment in cash (5, 10 and 25 cent coins; 1 and 5 dollar bills) and credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover).
If you are walking around South Beach and decide to park in that area, you should keep in mind that a public garage is cheaper than parking on the street, with the advantage of not having to worry about looking at the clock instead of the street option.
