One day, top down, zero regrets: Miami and South Beach, hour by hour.

One day, top down

If you’ve only got one day to fall in love with Miami, do it in a Polaris Slingshot. This open-air roadster turns every drive between stops into part of the adventure, so you’re never just getting there. From a sunrise beach walk to a neon-lit dinner, here’s how to spend the perfect day.

Morning: South Beach and Ocean Drive

Start early while the light is soft and the streets are calm. Roll slowly down Ocean Drive, taking in the pastel Art Deco hotels before the crowds arrive. Park nearby and walk barefoot on the sand, where turquoise water and pastel lifeguard stands make a picture-perfect start.

Late morning: Wynwood

Point the Slingshot toward Wynwood, Miami’s colorful arts district. Cruise past warehouse walls splashed with murals, park up and wander the open-air galleries and coffee shops.

Afternoon: the causeways and Key Biscayne

Head across a causeway toward Key Biscayne, with the bay glittering on both sides and the skyline rising behind you. This is where the open-air Slingshot really shines: wide water, wide sky and nothing between you and the view.

Golden hour: A1A and the coast

As the light softens, cruise the coastal roads and let the palms and ocean roll by. Golden hour in Miami is unreal, and there’s no better seat for it than an open-air roadster.

Evening: Brickell

Wrap the day in Brickell, Miami’s sleek downtown district packed with rooftop bars, skyline views and buzzy restaurants. Cruise in, hand over the keys and toast to a day well spent.
