Miami Beach Boardwalk & Walkway Covering Entire Coastline

Miami Beach Boardwalk

Miami Beach will soon have it’s walkway extended North covering the entire coastline!

That’s right, from South Point Park all the way to the open space park in North Beach. With the major draw to Miami being the sand & Atlantic ocean, just a few feet away are the stretches of pedestrian friendly walkways that include the winding ocean walk in South Beach, the mid island boardwalk, and now the North Beach area finishing off it’s six million dollar makeover with the new beach walk.

By the end of this year

you will have the walkway along the entire coastline of Miami Beach. People can start in South Pointe and walk, run, jog, bike & roller blade all the way down to North Beaches open space park. Approximately 77+ blocks of entertaining sunshine & exercise readily available.

We are trying to get all the beach like this so people can start in South Pointe and walk all the way to the end to the open space park in North Beach,” said Miami Beach Mayor Matti Herrera Bower.

This has been 10 years in the making with local developers like Eric Sheppard, donating funds ($300,000) to make the finished walkway a reality. Sheppard is just finishing up his multi million dollar Canyon Ranch development. Once completed, this will boast the largest fitness spa facility on the East Coast. This new walkway extension will be bringing a healthy lifestyle to the average Joe.

This is the whole lifeblood of the entire Miami Beach. I call it the Miami Beach connection… this enables us to connect all of Miami Beach through this boardwalk. We’ve invested the money. We hope people invest their time and their brain knowledge to really capitalize and embrace and utilize the health and fitness and utilize this beautiful boardwalk because it’s going to change their life,” said Sheppard.

One of the main reasons I was drawn to Miami Beach real estate back in January of 2001 was the fitness minded people & healthy lifestyle so abundant here. I’ve always been adamant on being surrounded by fitness minded people and with tropical weather year round, we do have the ultimate in living the healthy lifestyle so greatly missed by the majority of Americans. On a regular basis, you’ll find me rollerblading or skateboarding down South Beach’s oceanfront walkway. Now we will soon have the ability to enjoy the entire coastline with bikers, walkers, runners and the in between moving up & down the Miami Beach coastline!

From the bikini beach babes to the Grandpas in black knee high socks, we not only have Americas Cleanest City (by Forbes) but also the ideal environment for fitness and health all available for you to enjoy. I continually add to this Miami Beach real estate blog so if you’d like new updates once available, you can be notified by email(automatic updates) or by RSS feed (see upper left column) each time a new posting occurs. Have a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend -1.888.38.DREAM

    Do you know that the timeline is for completing the beach walk up to 47th st?

    Mid-beach boardwalk seems to have been neglected by the City after promoting the new park on 75/76th…looks like 42 blocks (5th to 47th) will have to do for now!?

    Thank you Akoya Guy for the input… it’s people like you who deliver the facts.

    Not so fast…

    I asked for an update from the Miami Beach Mayor’s office on 1/27/2009. Here is the response I received:

    “The City administration has informed me that there is currently no funding for the beach walk south of 64th street to 47th street where the boardwalk begins.”

    My understanding is yes they are…They are now doing 2 blocks at a time and currently on 22nd street. It’s also a paved surface for smoother riding, jogging, blading! Covering the entire Miami Beach coastline from 5th Street to the 70th Block. What a workout!!

    Can anyone tell me if the project is going to connect from Allison Park (near 65th St) south to Indian Beach Park (around 47th St)… I tried to bike the new pathway but when I go to around the Bath Club the path stops. Is it really going to connect from South Beach all the way to Surfside by the end of year? Are there plans to fill in the missing 20 blocks from 47th to 65th?

    Thanks.
