+Excellent weather combined with a huge event calendar — Miami Open and Ultra Miami make the city especially lively.

–Busier and more expensive than any other month.

Best for nightlife, events and classic Miami energy.

Scores and crowd levels are my own judgement; temperatures are monthly averages. Higher scores are better: quieter, cheaper and more pleasant.
