Miami Beach street parking is managed by the city's Parking Department through metered zones, residential permit areas, and time-limited parking. Parking meters in the South Beach Entertainment District operate from approximately 9:00 AM to 3:00 AM, among the longest meter hours in Florida. Other areas have varying meter schedules. The city uses a ParkMobile app and multi-space meters for payment. Residential parking permits are available for qualifying residents in Controlled Residential Parking Areas, allowing parking in designated resident-only zones. Vehicle storage on public streets is prohibited under Miami-Dade County ordinance, meaning vehicles cannot remain parked indefinitely without moving. Vehicles parked beyond posted time limits or in violation of meter regulations are subject to citation and potential towing. Overnight parking restrictions apply in certain areas, and street sweeping schedules require vehicles to be moved on designated days.
Parking meter violations typically range from $18 to $48 depending on the zone and violation type. Towing fees apply for repeated violations or blocking. Contact Parking Department at (305) 673-7275.
