Miami International Boat Show & Strictly Sail in Miami Beach

Miami International Boat Show 2012

February in Miami is a whirlwind of events which makes scoring a hotel room, a rental car or a table reservation for a great restaurant a really big deal once the Miami International Boat Show rolls into Miami Beach on February 16, 2012. With three separate locations in Miami and Miami Beach - the Miami Beach Convention Center, the Sea Isle Marina and Miamarina at Bayside Marketplace — the show attracts thousands of spectators, 2000 exhibitors and over 3000 boats!

The 5 day event is a treat for serious boaters and curious landlubbers who can get up close and personal with the latest powerboats, sleek sailboats, celebrity-style yachts and all the electronics and nautical accessories that go along with them. Beyond the actual watercraft, the show features informative seminars on sport fishing, water safety, SCUBA diving and travel. The Big Game Room Sport Fishing Expo inside the convention center is designed for the trophy fishing enthusiast with special guest appearances by TVs shark hunters from "Expedition Great White" and members of the cast of "Deadliest Catch."

Sailors gravitate to the marinas in Downtown Miami where the Strictly Sail show focuses on sailboats, sailing gear and accessories. Guests can attend daily sailing seminars, enjoy free sailboat rides and programs designed to teach children about boats and boat building. Dedicated shuttle busses and water taxis are available at all three sites to make it easy to navigate Miami's busy streets and see all the show sites without the hassle of finding a place to park. Tickets can be purchased online or at the show gates and include free access to all exhibits and shuttles. Group discounts are available and kids 15 and under get in free.

Miami International Boat Show & Strictly Sail, Miami Beach Convention Center, 1901 Convention Center Drive, South Beach. Bayside Marketplace, 401 Biscayne Boulevard, Downtown Miami.
