Miami Beach, FL Parking Rules: RV & Boat Parking (2026)

Sec. 106-152 makes it unlawful, as a declared public nuisance, to park, place, or store any boat or boat trailer on a street or public way anywhere in the city for more than two hours; the two-hour cap applies citywide with no zone carve-out. Sec. 106-153 goes further for recreational vehicles and tractor-trailer trucks, prohibiting their parking on public streets entirely within the area bounded by the east and west lines of Ocean Drive, the southerly line of 15th Street on the north, and the northerly line of South Pointe Drive on the south, which is the dense South Pointe and lower Ocean Drive residential and hotel corridor.

That prohibition is declared a nuisance outright rather than time-limited, meaning an RV or tractor-trailer cannot legally park on a street in that zone at all, at any hour. Sec. 106-153(b) specifically authorizes police officers to remove and impound vehicles illegally parked under this article, using the same removal and towing procedures set out elsewhere in chapter 106's articles on towing and immobilization. 3), reflecting a long-standing effort to keep boats, trailers, and oversized recreational vehicles from occupying scarce residential curb space on the barrier island.
