DOG-FRIENDLY PARKS IN MIAMI, FL

Southern Florida's largest city combines Caribbean influence with American urban energy, where Spanish is heard as commonly as English. Tropical weather dominates year-round, with summer temperatures in the 90s accompanied by daily afternoon rain showers and high humidity. Hurricane season from June through November shapes local planning and preparation. The metropolitan area exceeds 6 million residents, creating dense development from Brickell's high-rises to Coral Gables' tree-lined streets. Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean moderate temperatures slightly, though summer heat remains intense even at the waterfront.
