The Miami Flea
Founded by Miami’s Arts and Entertainment District, the Miami Flea hosts some of the city’s favorite artisans every third Sunday of the month from 4 to 8 p.m. Besides handcrafted jewelry and vintage goodies, you can snag a free read at the Bookleggers free pop-up library, adopt (or, fine, just pet) an adorable pup through Jamie’s Rescue and nosh at the Grub Garden, which is stocked with eats from the Salty Donut, Coyo Taco, My Ceviche and more.

Miami Design District
The Market At #mdd
Most days, the Design District is way beyond our budget. But on Wednesdays, this luxe shopping destination hosts one of Miami’s best outdoor markets. From 4 to 9 p.m., explore more than 40 vendors offering all of our favorite things (acai bowls! homemade jams! fresh flowers!) along with live music and made-to-order brick-oven pizza.
140 NE 39th St., Design District; miamidesigndistrict.
Adrienne Arsht Center Farmers’ Market
Every Monday, this nighttime farmers’ market takes over the outdoor courtyard of the Adrienne Arsht Center in downtown Miami. It may be small, but it sure is mighty. From 4 to 8:30 p.m., find a selection of organic fruits and vegetables, ready-made foods, Zak the Baker bread, vegan sweets and handmade crafts. Workshops, themed dinners and cooking demonstrations happen occasionally, too. Free parking is available across the street in lot C.
1300 Biscayne Blvd., Miami; arshtcenter.org
Coconut Grove Farmeers’ Market
Open Saturdays year-round, this two-decade-old market is consistently packed with the city’s freshest fruits, veggies, spices and herbs. There’s also a section dedicated to raw and vegan desserts, like ice cream made from cashews and coconut milk. (Um, yes, please.) Oh, and there are fresh doughnuts on site, too. The market begins at 11 a.m. but stays open until 7 p.m. We suggest a visit around 4 p.m., when the crowds have subsided and the weather is more manageable.
3300 Grand Ave. at Margaret St., Coral Gables; 305-238-7747
