Wynwood

The Basics

Wynwood has evolved into a thriving center for cuisine, culture, and art. Take a guided walking tour focused on galleries and museums, or visit the Wynwood Walls street murals on a scooter or golf cart excursion. Foodie tours offer tastings at everything from classy restaurants to hole-in-the-wall establishments you would likely miss on your own.

Located just off I-95, Wynwood is easy to get to by car, public transit, or taxi.

When to Get There

The best time to hang out in Wynwood is in the morning or evening, when temperatures tend to be cooler.

Visiting the Wynwood Walls

Wynwood’s revitalization began with the Wynwood Walls, and the colorful murals displayed on old warehouses are one of the neighborhood’s main draws. Enter the site for free, then follow a winding path through a dynamic array of street art. You’ll find more art outside the park and in the Wynwood Doors exhibit area.

Ways to explore

There are so many different ways to explore Wynwood. Join a guided walking tour focusing on galleries, museums, or the famous Wynwood Walls, or, to cover more ground, opt for a scooter, buggy, or Segway tour. Food-themed tours pair street art with tastings at top restaurants and hidden local spots, while hands-on graffiti workshops let you try creating your own mural. Some tours also combine Wynwood with other nearby neighborhoods, such as Little Havana or South Beach, for a broader Miami adventure.
