About Art Deco Historic District & Ocean Drive

Ocean Drive is Miami Beach at full volume: candy-colored 1930s hotels, glowing neon, sidewalk cafes and the Atlantic just across Lummus Park. The district holds hundreds of preserved Art Deco gems, and the Miami Design Preservation League's guided walking tours from the Art Deco Welcome Center bring the stories behind the facades to life. Go at golden hour when the neon flickers on.
