WELCOME
Mayor
DANIEL DIETCH On behalf of the Town Commission, welcome to Surfside, Florida! Surfside is a unique and treasured coastal community nestled between Bal Harbour to the North, the Atlantic Ocean to the East, Miami Beach to the South and Bay Harbor Islands and Indian Creek to the west. Since its incorporation in 1935, Surfside residents, business owners and visitors have contributed to its rich history and vibrancy. Today, Surfside is experiencing a renaissance with a number of new developments such as the Grand Beach and Marriott Hotels and luxury branded residential living at the Four Seasons and Fendi Chateau abutting the ocean. Yet even with these changes, Surfside has not foregone its small town charm and continues to be a beloved community to live, work, visit, raise a family and enjoy life. This official Surfside Visitor Guide will be a valuable tool in planning your stay. Whether soaking up the sun on our beautiful beach, exploring our vibrant shopping district or visiting the many nearby natural, historical and cultural sites, I am confident you too will love Surfside and that your visit here will be an experience long remembered.

T u r t l e Wa l k Did you know that one of Surfside’s most beloved residents is the Florida Loggerhead Sea Turtle? Just across the street from the Surfside Community Center is a muchloved public art exhibition celebrating these magnificent creatures. Turtle Walk is home to 13 turtle sculptures each painted by a renowned South Florida artist. These unique turtle sculptures are made of a resin and fiberglass composite and stand five feet high with a flipper span of four feet. Located on 93rd St between Collins Ave and Harding Ave, the exhibition highlights Sea Turtle Conservation, a cause near and dear to the residents of Surfside.

9 SURFSIDE TURTLES
“Mari Posa” by DL Watson
SURFSIDE TURTLES If you visit Surfside in the summer or fall, you might notice the limited use of streetlights after sunset and small protected areas on the beach. These measures are in place for Sea Turtle Nesting season, which is in full swing in Florida’s beachside communities between May and October. If you see an adult Sea Turtle or hatchling on the beach, observe from afar but never touch or handle them. By abstaining from interfering, you are helping our most precious Surfside residents thrive and allowing nature to take its course.
If you observe hatchlings wandering away from the ocean or trapped on the beach, call 1-888-404-FWCC (3922) or dial *FWC or #FWC on a a phone to make a report to the Florida Wildlife Conservation Commission.

THE BEACH
T h e B e ac h Surfside is a waterfront haven that offers a chance to enjoy the simple pleasures of beachfront living. The beach is a pristine mile-long stretch of beautiful sand boasting a serene setting, uninterrupted by commercial intrusion. From the beach you can enjoy an array of outdoor activities and the peaceful sounds and views of nature. For a great outdoor fitness experience, take advantage of shoreline walking and biking paths. With the beach to the east and lush sand dunes to the west, you can use the paths for a nice stroll, run, or bike ride. There is a lifeguard on duty at the beach just outside of the community center. Whether you enjoy taking long walks on the beach, viewing the picturesque sunsets, or going for an afternoon swim, there are many ways to enjoy the beach in Surfside.

Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club is set amid 900 feet of shoreline and lush tropical gardens.
FOur Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club From the moment it first opened its doors on New Year's Eve 1930 The Surf Club was a place of imagination and possibility. Commanding a nine-acre stretch of ocean front, its clubhouse and beachside cabanas formed elegant backdrops that would frame the beach and sea. The Surf Club quickly became a magnet for members; a home away from home to live a lifestyle in the sun fading into evenings under the stars. Now, a new tradition begins with Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club, as the eternal allure of the shoreline is paired with the brilliance of Pritzker-prize winning architect Richard Meier and interior designer Joseph Dirand. In addition to a meticulous restoration of the existing clubhouse and cabanas, Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club features 77 custom-designed guest rooms, including five unique Cabana Studios, as well as a selection of hotel residential suites in new buildings surrounding the original clubhouse and whose design disappears into the changing sky, beach and sea. Amenities include three seaside pools, a pristine beach, cabanas, a holistic spa and wellness center, a kids’ club paradise and ocean front dining in the historic heart of the Hotel. With Collins Avenue outside the front door, prestigious Bal Harbour shopping is nearby and the nightlife of South Beach and Miami just a short drive away.

Josh’s Delicatessen and Appetizing is a modern take on a traditional Jewish Deli. Executive Chef and owner Josh Marcus makes almost everything from scratch, serves deli staples, and bakes his own bread. But he doesn’t just serve up the typical bagel and whitefish fare. Instead, he serves crispy latkes with thinly sliced tuna and spicy mayo and a monster “Jewban” sandwich – pastrami, pork, pickle, and Swiss. The menu changes regularly with new offerings that keep diners guessing with every visit. It is an old world meets new world dining experience; and while it is not all kosher, it is all delicious.
