Malibu or Miami for Summer getaway with girlfriend

[wilmor33]

My girlfriend and I want to spend some time on the beach during the summer. She hasn’t spent a lot of time in the beach growing up. She’s Canadian-born and spent most her life there so it’s all ice for her than waves and sand. Her parents met in China and when they got married her mom migrated to Canada from China. After college she moved here in New York for better opportunities.

Given all that, I want to treat her to some well-deserved beach time. Should I bring her to Malibu or should we go to Miami? I believe tickets to Hawaii during the summer is too expensive so it’s kind of out of the picture.

Miami will be a perfect place to give her a special treat.

You should consider a place where you will spend less. What is more important is the getting together and the quality time spent together, and not the amount spent.

Miami is by far better with out a doubt. and the restaurants and setting allot more romantic then Malibu

There are beaches in the Hamptons on Long Island,...and you can just drive over there.

Florida in the summer is horrible -- hot, humid, dreadful. Go to Florida in the Spring or Summer. You can go to beach get away farther north in the summer.
