The 5 nicest water views in Miami
1) Nautilus Cabana Club
A lovely beachside hotel, Nautilus offers this stunner of a beach club that includes permanent cabanas, a wooden deck and absolutely lush, tropical landscaping that leads to the long, wide Atlantic stretching out like a blanket. Still, the best water view may be of the unique, long-step, saltwater pool on the premises.

2) Palmeiras Beach Club at Grove Isle
The waves of Biscayne Bay literally lap at your feet while you dine on fresh fish, down a Champagne cocktail, or chill on a chaise lounge under an umbrella at this chic establishment. So there’s just no arguing: This beach club is tops when it comes to peering at the peerless sea that surrounds Miami

3) Bayside Marketplace
Bayside is a busy place for commerce and entertainment. But its name clues you into its location: It’s built next to Biscayne Bay. You can walk the paths and watch the animated party boats take off from the marina, or sit on the benches, cast your eyes further toward the horizon and meditate.

4) The Kampong
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Kampong is an incredible collection of historic fruit cultivars and flowering trees, many of them from Southeast Asia. The tropical oasis leads down to sparkling panoramas of Biscayne Bay.

5) Julia Tuttle Causeway/Interstate 195
Miami is famous for being flat as paper, but the Julia Tuttle rises above – literally. As one of the causeways connecting the mainland to the beaches, it can almost be called a hill. At the crest, drivers can see the Atlantic, dotted with mangrove islands and water craft, extending on both sides.
