Full Day in Miami - Things to Do (with Young Children)

[alldaytuesdays]

Hi everyone, have received a lot of helpful advice from reading the message boards. We are cruising in late Feb and have 24 hours between our debarkation and flight home. Have not booked a hotel yet (am somewhat basing that on what/where we plan to do).

 

So, my question is for people who have spent time or cruised out of Miami - we have a 3 and 5 year old - looking for kid-friendly things to do/places to stay that day?

 

I have looked at Seaquarium, Jungle Island and others so far, but am interested to hear any feedback about these or others? Thanks in advance!

I'd be interested in hearing replies for this too. We're in the same boat (pardon the pun!) and sailing late Feb as well. :)

The Seaquarium is okay, not sure it's worth the price of admission. But your kids are the right age for it. They do have some great shows however and you are up close to watch them.

 

Zoo Miami is a great way to spend the day. I know that my 22 year old son and I enjoyed our day there this summer.

 

There is also a Science Museum in the area. My son enjoyed it, but as I didn't go, I can't give you any personal experience.
