Haulover Beach Park on Collins Avenue about 10 miles north of South Beach is one of Florida's last remaining wild sections of beachfront. It's a good place to fly a kite rented from Skyward Kites that's been in business for 20 years. The 2.5-mile long stretch of pristine sands is great for swimming and surfing with a half-mile "clothing optional" section at the northern end. The LGBT crowd tends to frequent the most northern reaches. The Bill Bird Marina in the park has the largest charter/drift fishing fleet in South Florida. Route 103A (Max) provides bus service along Collins Avenue. Parking is available on the west side of Collins with walkways to beach.
