Fun Facts

Before becoming a popular beach destination, South Pointe was home to a U.S. Army base during World War II, which played a role in coastal defense.

South Pointe Park's landscape was designed by the renowned architectural firm Hargreaves Associates, known for their innovative approach to integrating natural and urban environments.

The South Pointe Pier, extending 450 feet into the Atlantic Ocean, offers stunning views of the Miami skyline and is a favorite spot for both anglers and photographers.

South Pointe Park features several art installations, including the iconic 'Obstinate Lighthouse' by Tobias Rehberger, blending art with the natural beauty of the area.

The park includes a designated off-leash dog area, making it a popular spot for pet owners to enjoy the beach with their furry friends.

South Pointe Park incorporates sustainable design elements, such as native plantings and a stormwater management system, to minimize its environmental impact.

Visitors can watch massive cruise ships pass through Government Cut, a channel adjacent to the park, making for a spectacular sight as they head out to sea.
