Kosher Couple’s Getaway in North Miami

Day 1 · Sun, Jan 10
North Miami, FL

Kosher getaway in North Miami

  1. Ancient Spanish Monastery — North Miami Beach; explore the historic cloisters and gardens in the morning, ~1 hour (check Sunday visiting hours before setting out).
  2. Oleta River State Park — Biscayne Bay; enjoy a relaxed walk or kayak outing amid mangroves, late morning, ~2 hours (kayak rental and park access depend on availability).
  3. Sushi Ko — North Miami Beach; sit down for a kosher lunch, ~1 hour; allow about $25–45 per person and verify Sunday hours and current kosher certification.
  4. Arch Creek Park — North Miami; take an easy shaded nature walk and see the small local history museum, afternoon, ~1 hour (check museum hours).
  5. Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami (MOCA) — Downtown North Miami; finish with a compact contemporary-art visit, late afternoon, ~1–1.5 hours (confirm Sunday hours and exhibition access).

Morning

Start at Ancient Spanish Monastery in North Miami Beach for the cloisters and gardens; allow about an hour. Sunday hours are the snag: the monastery has commonly opened later on Sundays than on weekdays, so confirm its current hours before building the day around a morning visit. If it opens at 1 p.m., the planned morning start won’t work. From there, head to Oleta River State Park for a mangrove walk or kayak outing. It’s a short drive; budget about two hours, and check kayak rental availability and park access before setting out. Florida state parks typically charge a vehicle entry fee (often around $6), with rentals extra.

Lunch & Afternoon

Continue in the planned order to Sushi Ko in North Miami Beach for a sit-down kosher lunch—roughly $25–45 per person. Verify Sunday hours and current kosher certification directly before you go. Then drive to Arch Creek Park for an easy shaded walk and a look at the local-history museum; check the museum’s Sunday hours, as the building may close earlier than the trails. Finish at Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami (MOCA) for a compact contemporary-art visit, allowing 1–1.5 hours and confirming Sunday hours and exhibition access in advance. One practical caveat: if the monastery opens at 1 p.m., the later stops’ Sunday closing times make the full sequence difficult to complete at an unhurried pace. Confirm hours before committing; if they don’t align, you’ll need to shorten the outdoor stops or give one of the indoor visits another day.
