Between the beach, popular local clubs and inexpensive day trips, here are the 10 best places to meet women in Miami. Miami is one of the hottest cities in the world, and while the temperature is warm all year long, that’s not all that will make you feel the heat.
Bayfront Park.
Visitors can participate in free yoga class on Mondays and Wednesdays at 6 p.m. and Saturdays at 9 a.m. Both men and women — from beginners to advanced practitioners — come out, so don’t hesitate in grabbing a yoga mat and joining in.

Spa 101.
Spas are an untapped resource for meeting women in Miami.

Basement
If you’re looking for the hot, crowded kind of nightclub where anything could happen, Basement is what you want. Lines sometimes wrap around the block, which makes bumping into women and striking up a conversation a cinch. When it’s not unusual for guests to be in costume and random breakdance parties could break out at any time, breaking the ice with a woman you just met just got a whole lot easier. 2901 Collins Ave., Miami Beach
