What to pack

What January feels like

January is the height of season — Lincoln Road hums and the causeways back up every weekend. When a front sneaks through, you get the great Miami spectator sport of locals in puffer jackets worn over swimsuits.

Expect about 4 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. Humidity stays comfortable; the air never feels heavy.

Can you swim?

The ocean runs about 73° — comfortable for swimming.
