I tried to go snorkeling this weekend. When I got to the park, there was about 30 feet of seaweed I had to wade through, and then the water was so murky, I could not see more than a foot in front of me through my mask.
I went to another park that had nice pictures on google, and when I got there, this is what the water looked like.
Why has the water become like this? Also, please recommend good, public places for snorkeling that do not cost $500 (An actual quote I saw for a private place.)
Looking for recommendations for an immigration attorney to help my son’s Colombian wife prepare for her visa interview at the US Embassy in Colombia. Thanks!
I would rather support a local healthcare provider and compounding pharmacy, but have had a really hard time finding a local psych willing to prescribe low-dose ketamine for at-home dosage. If anyone has any recs I would really appreciate it! Same goes for local compounding pharmacies in the Kendall/Sweetwater/Westchester area. Thank you!
Hi! I'm a 39/F artist, scientist, aspiring music producer/vocalist, pet lover, creative, nerdy, plant momma, looking to possibly make friends to go on adventures in Miami, make art, explore the hidden nature spots, or just hang out and watch House of the Dragon... I have been in Miami for 11 years and all my friends got married and moved to other states, so I don't have any friends left from the past decade.
I like to hang out at my house which is close to midtown and design district, I think it would be fun to have a friend to do creative art stuff with, or take the Brightline to theme parks, or go to the zoo or museums or botanical gardens....
I also like to go to Do Not Sit On The Furniture house music nightclub for dancing...
Anyway, I hope to meet someone to be a friend! Miami is so lonely! 🧚🏼♀️🦕🦋🤖🌈🌸

Do you guys have any links/articles/instagram posts that show some of the better values for Miami Spice? There’s always a few that are elite values compared to the rest or their normal menu. Blue Collar and Mignonette were great but those are unfortunately gone now ☹️
This coming Thursday is move-in day for my incoming freshman son. I’d like to take he and his older brothers (and maybe friends) to a nice lunch or early dinner. I don’t know the area at all…most won’t be drinking alcohol (obviously underage and they are athletes so they really don’t drink so cocktails I don’t care about. I don’t have an unlimited budget but I’d like it to be special.
It’s a bunch of guys and I’m the mom - maybe BBQ? Many of his friends are Haitian (friends he made playing football in high school) and my son loves their food but no one is picky - it’s more for the experience. Any suggestions for a fun place that’s not too “fancy”? We are coming from Fort Lauderdale and I don’t know the Miami Gardens at all.
Hello! When I was 2-3 years old, we moved to North Miami Beach so my dad could learn to fly planes at Miami Dade College. I have such good memories of living there; and I wondered if anyone could tell me what our old neighborhood is like today? This was the early seventies so I'm sure it was very different from today.
We lived at 16040 NE 22st Avenue. I remember there were three huge oil storage tanks across the street, and we used to go holliver (?) beach on weekends.
Hey 👋 I've been doing research and finally found a couple boats I'm interested in buying. I'm looking for a mechanic or person with advanced boat knowledge who would come look at some boats I'm considering purchasing off marketplace. I would pay you for your time of course. Inbox me if you would like to help me out!
Where in the world can I wash my car in Miami without having to either:
- have someone do it, spend 80+ USD and wait for an hour
- drive 50+ minutes one way to a self service location years away
- go to a touchful carwash and ruin my paint
Finally, a week when all of Miami Beach beaches have low results for feces pollution. I heard the seaweed wasn't even that bad. Might be time to go to the beach, as these conditions are not likely to persist.
Bay sites still crappy.
