Beach, Hotel & Pool Reopenings
Today, the City of Miami Beach has amended its Emergency Order — allowing for beaches, hotels and condominium/apartment building/community pools to reopen on June 1, 2020, consistent with Miami-Dade County Emergency Order 23-20 and subject to a series of rules and social distancing guidelines.
Beaches will be open daily from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. with the following COVID-19 safety measures in place:
Facial coverings must always be readily available and are required for use in bathrooms, at concessions or when social distancing cannot be achieved (except for members of the same household)
Social distancing will be enforced and groups of 10 or more are prohibited
No use of exercise equipment or playgrounds; no shared equipment, organized activities, sports or classes; no special events or group picnics
No fishing, pets on the beach, floats, tents/canopies nor coolers

Over 100 social distancing ambassadors will be deployed on the beach daily for the next few weeks to ensure patrons are following the aforementioned measures. We remind all to do their part to keep our beautiful beaches clean as they make their return to enjoy the sun and sand.
Pools at condos, apartment buildings, homeowner associations and hotels will need to adhere to social distancing guidelines and capacity limits. Visit www.miamibeachfl.gov/reopening/pools for detailed information.
