Matheson Hammock Beach
Lying under the cool shadows of majestic palm trees and surrounded by the scenic natural beauty that Miami beaches are famous for, the Matheson Hammock beach is the place to be to find yourself. The mangrove forests and aged oak trees, standing tall, impart a tranquil aura all around this beach, making it a great choice to enjoy the painted sunset or give your nerves some rest before you head off to a happening beach party in the night. Carry a book and devour the pages as the rhythmic lapping of the waters sends you into a relaxing trance, or just take a dip in the crystal-clear waters and let the coolness wash over you.
However, if you are in the mood to give your adrenaline a boost, then give the various water activities a try. Go for a paddle-boarding ride or give kite-boarding a try and feel the rush of excitement at the sea breeze strikes your face. You also have the option of trekking through the various nature trails that originate from the beach and exploring the untouched corners of the most relaxing of all beaches in Florida. The Matheson Hammock Beach is also home to a grand artificial atoll-pool and several restaurants where you can munch on delectable seafood while planning your activities of the day.
