Location · Sunny Isles Beach
Sunny Isles: the beach with a resort feel
Wide sand, a pier reaching into the Atlantic and sleek towers behind. Sunny Isles delivers polished beach photos that look straight out of a travel magazine.
Open ocean with a touch of skyline
Sunny Isles Beach is a strip of Atlantic shoreline between Miami Beach and Broward County. Pier Park sits around the fishing pier, a classic landmark on this coast.
The pier as a guide
The pier's lines draw the eye to the horizon and add depth to every frame.
A clean horizon
Facing east there's only sea and sky: perfect for simple, elegant portraits.
Towers behind you
Turn the camera and the oceanfront buildings add a modern, sophisticated edge.

Family on vacation

The best light at Sunny Isles
The beach faces east, so sunrise is the star. In the afternoon the towers cast shade across the sand and the light turns even and soft.
- Sunrise: the sun comes up over the ocean; ideal for silhouettes and pastel tones.
- Late afternoon: open shade from the buildings for portraits without squinting.
- Season: November to April is usually drier; from May to October we avoid peak heat and afternoon storms.
- The beach is shared with swimmers and anglers: we find open spots and respect the dunes and their plants.
What to wear at Sunny Isles
A resort style shines here: light fabrics, subtle shimmer and colors that pop against the blue.
- Long slit or chiffon dresses in white, champagne, fuchsia or emerald.
- For him: a guayabera or linen shirt with light pants.
- Gold accessories that catch the sunrise light.
- Barefoot on the sand; updos or half-up styles to handle the sea breeze.
