About Bal Harbour Beach
Bal Harbour is an upscale village at the north end of Miami Beach's barrier island, known as much for its luxury shopping as its quiet, well-kept Atlantic beach. A refined, low-key enclave compared with the South Beach scene to the south, it offers warm water and a relaxed, exclusive feel. The south-Florida Atlantic stays warm most of the year. Rip currents are Florida’s deadliest beach hazard, so check the safety flag and rip-current risk above, follow posted flags, and swim near a lifeguard.
