Consejos para la ciudad
Cómo moverse
Traffic and Parking Downtown
Don’t do it! It’s not a far walk! Seriously, between April and October the downtown area is limited to resident parking and the public lots are full. Avoid using a car. If walking isn’t your thing, Uber or Lyft is your friend. Cars are fine to reach the mansions, markets, Ocean Drive, etc. but bring walking shoes and enjoy the sites of the neighborhoods.
