Rare CruzerDeb Posted November 12, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Has anyone taken the water taxi in Miami? I'm planning on it! I'm staying across the street from Bayside and want to go to South Beach and walk around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1025cruise Posted November 12, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 12, 2019 You might want to inquire on the Florida Departures board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare CruzerDeb Posted November 13, 2019 Author #4 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Thanks, but I wasn’t asking about the schedule, I was asking if anyone had experience using them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to go to South Beach, there are much cheaper, convenient ways to do this other than the water taxi. The route is a very long way to get to South Beach and it drops you off at the Miami Beach Marina which isn't close to anything in South Beach but Montys and Smith & Wollensky. You'll still have to Uber to get to Lincoln Road, Ocean Drive, Espanola Way, etc. The Miami Water Taxi has some great stops on the Miami River but otherwise, not so much. I would just Uber to South Beach and spend that money on mojitos at The Delano. Or spend the day on the water taxi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did this last year and enjoyed it, although we did have a bit of a hiccup that was subsequently resolved satisfactorily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info! You found the walk do-able from water tax drop off point to South Point Park Pier? I'm off to map all this stuff, but I do like the thought of round trip on the water taxi.

On the whole we did. We just took it slowly and stopped to take photos from time to time. DH, being the least fit, was more than ready to sit down when we eventually went for lunch though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, that was meant to read: they made the issue of the boat breaking down good by refunding our full ticket price. That's what happens when you're trying to split your attention between posting on the boards and your cat demanding rubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
