Cruise Ship Watching POM

What is the best location to watch the cruise ships as they come in and leave? Also any suggestions on Hotels that would allows us to cruise ship watch would be appreciated. Thanks for the help!

Personal favorite is the beach area just behind Nikki Beach Club on South Beach. It's where the channel connects to the ocean - really good views from there!

But you need to be there in early morning or late afternoon when the ships sail by.

I like to go to Monty Trainer's Raw Bar South Beach which sits aside the Miami Beach Marina. Watch the ships pass the Coast Guard Base while sipping a little brewski, munching some stone crab and conch fritters and let the kids play in their pool if so encumbered.

 

Ships arrive at zero dark hundred - before dawn typically. I'd see them on my way to work crossing the MacA causeway ... not something I'd want to get up for if on vacation.
