Miami is accessible by air through Miami International Airport (MIA), which offers direct international and domestic flights—ideal for a romantic getaway on a moderate budget. You can also arrive by train via Amtrak or by long-distance bus lines like Greyhound and Megabus, both connecting from major U.S. cities.
If you’re feeling adventurous, consider traveling by cruise; Miami’s busy port welcomes cruises from the Caribbean and beyond. For couples driving in, scenic routes like the drive from Orlando or the Florida Keys are popular. Early October typically offers warm weather, but keep in mind that it’s hurricane season, so monitor forecasts and consider travel insurance.
Miami enjoys a tropical climate with warm temperatures year-round. Winters are mild and pleasantly dry, while summers are hot, humid, and feature afternoon thunderstorms. Expect lush greenery and plenty of sunshine almost any time you visit, making it ideal for beach outings and outdoor activities.
From October 1 to October 5, Miami transitions to its drier, slightly cooler season. Temperatures usually range from the mid-70s to the upper 80s (°F), with humidity starting to ease, but afternoon showers remain possible. October is also within hurricane season, so visitors should stay updated on weather forecasts in case of severe storms.
Miami’s cuisine blends Cuban, Caribbean, and Latin American flavors—don’t miss Cuban sandwiches, stone crab, or ceviche. For a romantic meal, try Versailles for classic Cuban, or Mandolin Aegean Bistro for Mediterranean in a charming setting. Enjoy drinks at Sugar, a rooftop bar with skyline views, or sip mojitos in South Beach.
Many restaurants add a 15–20% service charge, but check your bill—otherwise, tip 18–20%. Miami caters well to vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free diets; just ask staff for recommendations. For a special touch, book a sunset dinner cruise or a beachside picnic—perfect for couples looking for memorable, intimate experiences.

For reservations, use trusted booking websites like Booking.com, Expedia, or Hotels.com to find good deals and guest reviews.
