Miami is one of the world's premier shopping cities, so if you're not into sunbathing and outdoor activities, or you just can't take the heat, you'll be in good company in one of Miami 's many malls. Miami also offers more unique shopping spots, such as the up and coming area near downtown known as the Biscayne Corridor, where funky boutiques dare to defy the Gap, and Little Havana, where you can buy hand-rolled cigars. South Beach also offers a multitude of exclusive boutiques and shops offering everything from the latest fashions by world-renowned designers to Art Deco posters from the 1930s .
Bal Harbor Shopping Mall -Bal Harbor Shopping Mall is an exclusive shopping mall, which specializes in designer shops, including Bulgari, Chanel, Cartier, Gucci, Hermes, Prada and Tiffany, to name but a few. This large Miami shopping mall is also home to Saks Fifth Avenue and Florida 's largest Nieman Marcus store.
Miami International Shopping Mall - The Miami International Shopping Mall features five large department stores and many popular Miami chain-stores, as well as a number of smaller and interesting shops. This shopping mall is situated close to Miami International Airport (MIA).
Sawgrass Outlet Mall - Approximately 30 miles away from Miami Beach With over 270 manufacturer's outlets, retail outlets and other name brand discounters, Sawgrass Mills is one of Florida's premiere shopping destinations and a major tourist attraction. The mall has two food courts and three restaurants
Great Streets of South - Once known as the Fifth Avenue of South Florida , Lincoln Road Pedestrian Mall is located in this twelve block shopping district, as well as many fine restaurants, an eclectic mix of international, local, and one-of-a-kind stores, numerous art galleries, and three theaters.
Dolphin Mall - This shopping, dining, and an entertainment center complex features over 200 specialty shops, retailers, and outlets, as well as fine restaurants and a 19 screen cinema.
Miracle Mile ( Coral Gables ) -- Actually only a half-mile long, this central shopping street was an integral part of George Merrick's original city plan. Today, the strip still enjoys popularity, especially for its bridal stores, ladies' shops, haberdashers, and gift shops. Recently, newer chain stores, like Barnes & Noble, Old Navy, and Starbucks, have been appearing on the Mile.
Biscayne Corridor - Amidst the ramshackle old motels of yesteryear exist several funky, kitschy, and arty boutiques along the stretch of Biscayne Boulevard from 50th Street to about 79th Street known as the Biscayne Corridor. Everything from hand painted wife beaters to expensive Juicy Couture sweat suits can be found here, but it's not just about fashion: Several furniture stores selling antiques and modern pieces exist along here as well, so look carefully as you may find something here that would cause the appraisers on Antiques Road Show to lose their wigs.
Coconut Grove - Downtown Coconut Grove centered on Main Highway and Grand Avenue and branching onto the adjoining streets is one of Miami 's most pedestrian-friendly zones. The Grove's wide sidewalks, lined with cafes and boutiques, can provide hours of browsing pleasure. Coconut Grove is best known for its chain stores (Gap, Banana Republic, and so on) and some funky holdovers from the days when the Grove was a bit more bohemian, plus excellent sidewalk cafes centered on Coco Walk and the Streets of Mayfair .
