Soak Up the Spring Atmosphere at Haulover Beach Park 

For a completely different setting for Easter, why not head to the beach? Miami Food Trucks puts on a unique easter event at Haulover Beach Park, where the family can join in the easter egg hunts or dine on a variety of dishes from the food trucks. Bring along picnic blankets and chairs so you can soak up the vibe, listen to the live DJ, and celebrate with the Miami community.

Visit the Yellow Green Farmers Market 

The Yellow Green Farmers Market is a Miami institution, with vendors offering everything from fresh produce to books to clothing. Not only that, every weekend you’ll find it buzzing with music, art workshops, and yoga classes. Over Easter, the market gets even more fun as the Easter bunny makes an appearance and kids get to take part in the egg hunts or get their faces painted. 

Dine on a Delicious Easter Brunch in Miami

Of course, there’s no mention of Easter celebrations in Miami without brunch. The city is teeming with restaurants to choose from for your outing, offering a diversity of cuisines and brunch options to choose from. 

At Lightkeepers at the Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, you can dine on a sumptuous Easter feast of seafood and mimosas while overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. For fulsome fare, the Rusty Pelican always delivers, serving up lobster benedicts, fried chicken and waffles, and classic French toast along with views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline. 

If you’re in the mood for Mexican food, you can’t go wrong with Lona Cocina & Tequileria in Fort Lauderdale. With its specialty action stations, you’ll get to choose from a selection of waffles, omelets, ceviche, and Mexican specialties, all topped off with bottomless mimosas. 

Should you be looking for an elevated experience, then the Michelin-starred Le Jardinier will be the perfect place. Their brunch menus offer a melange of colorful plates, with dishes like beef tartare, tuna carpaccio, and butternut squash risotto, along with intricate cocktails that will delight your taste buds.
