traffic

most of the holiday traffic occurs on the friday and the monday of monday holiday weekends....mia to orl approx 4 to 4 1/2 hours straight thru....beaches...hutchison island around ft pierce, vero beach, melbourne beach, cocoa beach.....you will be adding time to your travel just getting to and from the beach, prolly at least 30 minutes each way from i 95...maybe longer for everyone will be going to the beach

if you are going up I-95 the best place to stop will be the stuart area. their forum can help you with choices.

orlando is not on the coast and 95 is not along the coast either. while I think 30 minutes is excessive to drive inland... it will not be ';on the way';

deerfield beach about an hour and half north of miami has two wonderful resturants on the beach. oceans 234 and JBs on the beach, both offer direct beachside dinning. both lovely food.

quite frankly... if you are staying in miami for any length of time... go for a great breakfast or lunch there on the water. than drive the rest of the way to orlando.

during your stay in miami there will be many options for you to get great ocean views with your dinning!
