Miami is famous for glamour and parties. With top class bars and clubs attracting the world’s best DJs, Miami is definitely a place where you can find your groove. Miami is also a place to develop the body beautiful. Every day South Beach becomes a catwalk of fitness as beautiful people rush by on rollerblades or in designer trainers. South Beach also offers the opportunity to embrace your spiritual side, with yoga classes being offered twice a day for $5 on the 3rd St beach.
The regular Downtown Full Moon Party at the Miami Arts Space is the perfect opportunity to combine hedonism with health and spiritual well-being. For the party people, the event offers live bands and DJ sets and a drinks bar offering Chakra Cocktails among your favourite tipples. The beautiful people include the fire dance performers who demonstrate their skills for the partygoers. Finally, for the spiritual seekers, the event offers free yoga classes and also there is a massage therapist on site to unknot your tensions away. For a more hippy vibe check out the full moon drum circles held between 79th & 86th Streets on Miami Beach.

Celebrate next St. Patrick’s Day in County Miami!
If you are considering a move from Ireland to the US, why not come to County Miami? Miami may not be known for its Irish population, but it has everything that a self-respecting Irish person needs to enjoy St. Patrick’s Day and beyond! And it’s a million miles from the wet weather and economic gloom of the Emerald Isle.
You won’t need to abandon your jig practice to start with. The Breffni Academy of Irish Dancing in North Miami trains dancers of all ages and levels for feises all over the world.
If you enjoy the Cheltenham Festival, have no fear, there are plenty of dog and horse racing events at courses close to Miami, perfect for the cheeky flutter! Golfers are also exceptionally well catered for. There are 1,261 courses in Florida – that’s more than four times the number in the whole of Ireland (300).
Don’t worry about missing the soccer, 6 nations or the Gaelic Games either – subscription services can bring them right to your home. Or you can go to one of the Irish bars in South Beach – Waxy O’Connor’s, Finnegan’s and The Playwright regularly show European sports. There are occasional Irish Traditional music sessions at Waxy’s in Brickell also.
Just like any decent town back in Ireland, you’ll find a Catholic church not too far from the pub. There is a massive Latin population in Miami, so if you fancy something a bit different for St. Patrick’s Day, how about going to Mass in Spanish!
For a more traditional St. Patrick Day’s celebration, there is an annual Irish Festival in Coral Gables, which features Irish music, crafts, dancing and a drop of the black stuff. And of course, a few more Guinnesses can be found in Miami’s Irish Bars afterwards.
Property investment was one of the big pastimes in Ireland until a couple of years ago. If you invest here in Miami , you could come back after a few jigs to a fabulous condo looking back towards the Emerald Isle. You’ll find beautiful ocean views in The Blue Diamond or The Green Diamond. A couple of sea front condos. It’s only 4,014 miles to Mizen Head, Co Cork!
So, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on... Make your lucky leap in the capable hands of Kelly Charles, the specialist in Miami real estate for overseas investors. Spend next Paddy’s Day in the sunshine with a few more freckles! Sláinte!
