About Miami

Miami, at Florida's southeastern tip, is a vibrant city whose Cuban influence is reflected in the cafes and cigar shops that line Calle Ocho in Little Havana. Miami Beach, on barrier islands across the turquoise waters of Biscayne Bay, is home to glamorous South Beach, famed for its colorful art deco buildings, white sand, surfside hotels and trendsetting nightclubs. The city is home to numerous museums, many of which are in Downtown. Miami is also the home of the world's largest art exhibition, dubbed the "Olympics of Art", Art Basel Miami. The event is held annually in December, and attracts thousands of visitors from around the world. Miami music is varied, from the Cuban conga and rumba, to the Caribbean reggae, soca, calypso. The cuisine of Miami is a reflection of its diverse population, with a heavy influence especially from Caribbean cuisine and from Latin American cuisine. By combining the two with American cuisine, it has spawned a unique South Florida style of cooking known as Floribbean cuisine. Miami has a tropical monsoon climate with January averaging 19.6 °C. The wet season begins in May, ending in mid-October. During this period, temperatures are between 19–35 °C, accompanied by high humidity.

Jewish History, POI & Kosher Establishments in Miami

The history of the Jews in South Florida dates back to the early 19th century. Presently, there are approximately 535,000 Jews living in Southeast Florida. Jews first permanently settled in the Miami, Florida area in 1896. The first synagogue in Miami Beach, Beth Jacob, was built in 1919 on Washington Avenue between 3rd and 4th streets because at the time Jews were not allowed to live north of 5th. Miami Beach is now renowned as a Jewish area. There is a Jewish population across the whole South Florida metropolitan area. At last count, local federations’ studies found 156,000 Jews in Palm Beach County (2005); 186,500 Jews in Broward County (2008); and 113,000 Jews in Miami-Dade (2004). The population in all three is made up of many retirees but increasingly there is a younger population being born and living in the area, especially in the Miami-Dade region.
Miami is also one of the most popular destinations for Pesach programs in the US. Be sure to check out our complete guide to Passover Programs in the United States and Passover Programs around the world.

What Is *JOFY?

JOFY, or "Jewish Observant Friendly" Establishments are lodging establishments offering special services for Jewish Observant guests such as Shabbat meals, accommodation on lower floors and regular keys for the rooms. It can also be a NON KOSHER establishment located in walking distance from the local Shul, community or kosher restaurants area.

Please note - *JOFY does NOT mean that KOSHER food is served on the premises!
