It was a New Year's day when we visited this park which is just before the Bayside marketplace. To reach it best is to use the free Metromover which has two stations just along the park. For those coming by car, there're 3-4 parking lots, almost always full with a steep rate of 10$ for 2 hrs if I remember correctly.
However, the park was nice offering great downtown Miami views. Due to holidays there were many international food stalls with great food, mainly Latin American.
The only downside are homeless people around lying and begging for money. I'm surprised the authorities let them stay there in the sole city center family oriented area.

We came here at night. There is a walkway along the water. At night the city is lit up and it's nice to just sit, enjoy the water, stroll, and enjoy the view. We started out near a condo building called The Mark and walked north from there.

Still my favorite spot in Miami. This place is awesome, I have to say that I am a part of a few locals that come to this spot. The new attraction is the Sky VIew a big ferris wheel similar to the ones in London, Orlando, and other spots. It is a great way for $20 to see the bay from high up. Bayside has some of my fav restaurants such as Bubba Gump, a German Restaurant, and even 5 guys along with all sorts of places to eat and drink. The mall inside is still my favorite spot to stock up on Miami souvenirs.

My family and I stood for 3 hours waiting for Pitbull and the ENTIRE pre-show was in Spanish, including the presenters. It was so frustrating, since we didn't understand a word. We left before he came on stage. So disappointed in Miami Bayfront. It should have been advertised as a Spanish-speaking show. I love the mix of culture in Miami, but to completely alienate English speaking people? come on. Been to 3 previous and they weren't like this. Will never go again.

This park is huge and very clean and even at night we felt quite safe as it was lit very well. The park has sidewalks, green areas, concert venues and has excellent views of the bay and the city behind it. It connects the hotel area to the Bayside Marketplace. You'll probably end up here if you are visiting Brickell or any of the surrounding areas.

Disappointed in this CITY EVENT!!!! Saw the advertisement ON THE NEWS for New Years Eve event at bay front Park. I took my English speaking family there but the entire concert was in Spanish! It should have been advertise as a Spanish only event so non Spanish visitors don't waste time going there! We enjoyed the fireworks at the end!

This is a pleasant open air mall with all the typical stores to be found there. There were typical chain restaurants as well and some local ones as well. As it is an outdoor location on the water, dining here is a very pleasant experience and is recommended

Absolutely beautiful! Amazing experience if you go at Night, the water reflects so elegantly in the water bed. Went for a walk here with my son, he enjoyed how beautiful it was. Definitely one of the best parks i've been to in Miami.

This is one of the prettiest parks in the city with the dramatic skyline on one side and the lovely bay water on the other. Well-maintained landscaping. A very good place to take a long walk, and that is what people do here.

We found this area to be relaxing with a great view and nice breeze in the evening. It was an awesome place to watch the
4th of July Fireworks from several locations. Watching the boats was fun too. Lots of activities for for kids. Great security throughout the weekend.

Thinking about going to the NYE concert and fireworks in the park. Is there seating or do we need to bring out own chairs?
Written December 30, 2018
Hey, so I'm interested in going to this park more for the fireworks than the Pitbull show but I have two very small children. Is it safe to bring little kids? I know it says its family friendly but I'm just trying to get a parents point of view or experience. Thanks!

Hello ,
I took my kids as well . You just need to watch them well for the crowed that you don't lose them. The people are calm as they are looking at the fireworks. Happy New Year and enjoy your stay !!!

Anyone paid for the VIP NYE? Was it worth it ($300) vs. just doing general admission for free? Pros / cons?

Prueba en el restaurant La Mar, tienes una vista espectacular de la bahia o en el Intercontinental seguro conseguiras una buena opción!

es un parque abierto al publico - paseo gratis --estacionamiento -parqueo tambien tienes free -gratis , si te fijas y si no tambien hay pagado .

Por la avenida al frente del lugar hay extensos sectores de estacionamiento público medido. Si llegara a estar todo ocupado habrá que pasar un poco mas adelante y en la zona hotelera hay mas espacio. No queda muy lejos y es bastante cómodo.
