Surfside

Request information

Surfside is a small oceanfront town between Miami Beach and Bal Harbour, incorporated in 1935. A mile of public beach, a two-block shopping street on Harding Avenue and a pedestrian-friendly scale give it the feel of a quiet seaside village within metropolitan Miami.

Surfside, Miami

Who is Surfside for?

Surfside suits buyers who want to live by the ocean at a human scale, with the beach and a compact shopping district close at hand. It appeals to those who prefer a quiet residential town to a resort district, with Bal Harbour and Miami Beach on either side.

What kind of homes will you find?

The town blends houses old and new with multi-family condominium and apartment buildings, while new high-end condominiums and hotels have risen along Collins Avenue. The best known is the Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club, where residences designed by Richard Meier’s firm frame the historic Surf Club, founded in 1930.

What is daily life like?

The oceanfront Community Center on Harding Avenue, with its pools and green space, opens directly onto the beach, which can also be reached at every street end. Harding Avenue gathers local shops, and on the bay side 96th Street Park offers a kayak launch, with lighted courts at the Surfside Tennis Center.

Common questions.

Is Surfside part of Miami Beach?
No. Surfside is an independent town, incorporated on May 18, 1935, when members of the Surf Club organized to avoid annexation by Miami Beach. It borders Miami Beach’s North Beach to the south and Bal Harbour to the north.
Is the beach in Surfside public?
Yes. The town has about a mile of public beach, from 87th Terrace to 96th Street, accessible at every street end.
What should condo buyers know about building inspections in Florida?
Since 2022, Florida law requires condominium buildings of three or more habitable stories to complete a milestone structural inspection, generally 30 years after the certificate of occupancy and every 10 years after, plus a structural integrity reserve study at least every 10 years. These reports are part of the association’s official records and must be provided to potential purchasers.
