One of the perks of living in South Florida is the array of 4th of July festivities to celebrate America’s Independence Day. Whether you choose to celebrate and watch from land or sea or a high-rise condo, the exploding lights in the sky in Miami are quite spectacular. In many locations in Miami from boat or high-rise condos, you can see upwards of 5 or 6 different firework shows at once…we definitely live in the Magic City!

Below are our top 6 picks for 4th of July celebrations this year, but first, we want to say that we are eternally grateful to those men and women who have fought and sacrificed for our country and our freedom. Miami Luxury Homes is wishing you and your family a happy, safe and peaceful Fourth of July Weekend!
