Go Tropical in Miami
There’s a great athletic park in Miami: Tropical Park , located at 7900 Southwest 40th Street, and within walking distance of the best Japanese restaurant in Miami: Sushi Ko Japanese Restaurant. Tropical Park is laid out with a road down the middle, which works very well to connect you to everything while giving the park the feel of a neighborhood.
At one end, you’ll find a lake and a small pond. In the middle, you’ll find all the picnic areas and children’s jungle gyms. Close to the main entrance, you’ll find the baseball fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, racquetball courts, volleyball courts, a football field, a soccer field and a few more picnic areas. At the left of the main entrance is the Equestrian Center, which is amazing since this park is not huge, but the way it’s laid out keeps most people concentrated in specific areas, which make the park seem larger than it is.
Whether you are here on a visit, staying at any 4 star hotels Miami offers, or a resident, Tropical Park is a great place to get a great workout, stay in shape or just take a nice relaxing stroll alongside a healthy population of ducks, birds and squirrels that hang around the freshwater lake. You could even fish or take a paddle boat out for a spin around the park. Tropical offers it all; you’ll not want for more.
