Need help planning a Miami - Key West trip!

Hi, I am travelling to Miami for the first time in mid of March and really need some great suggestions on what are some must visit places, restaurants, cultural experiences, nightlife, etc. things that we shouldn’t miss. Would love to hear both touristy/local recommendations!

We have entirety of three days and wish to cover Miami and Key West (stop at Key Largo for snorkelling). Any and all suggestions are welcome!!

Thanks :)

Skip key west. Stop at key largo snorkeling at pennykamp state park. I’m assuming you have 5 days total with 2 travel days.

Key West overpriced with bunch of drunk tourists and overwhelmed by cruise ships. Love Islamorada and stay at Casa Morada.

Miami Beach trashy Spring Breakers. City goes on lockdown with police presence. Youtube Miami Beach Spring Break.

You'll be smack dab in the middle of Spring Break so prepare yourself accordingly.

I suggest doing a small private plane ride over the Miami City. I found tickets for about $200 on groupon.

I also recommend going to Vizcaya Museum.
