South Pointe Beach, Miami Beach, Fl |
There are lots of free events in South Florida, and if you take the time to look around in your community you will find lots of frugal family fun activities. I have listed a few of the free events in Miami below, but the best place to start is at your city website's calendar of events.
A day out with the family does not have to break your family's entertainment budget, and by participating in free or low-cost local activities you not only show support for your local community, but you also help your feel apart of their community.
