I head out to Miami every year. Love that place.
If you guys are into clubbing, South Beach has a ton of great places. Space is my favorite though. One of the top clubs in the world. 3 rooms, great sound and nice staff. And the creepyass guy behind the exhibition glass right when you enter is my favorite.
If you go to Biscayne Bay, hit up Cviche 105. It's a Peruvian restaurant on 3rd ave and it's freaking awesome. Also be careful with parking downtown if you drive. Parkades are hard to find, and they often lock the gates after a certain time. There is a parkade right by Bayside market place (on Biscayne Blvd) that's open the whole day.
And go to Bayside market. It's an outdoor market right alongside the port. Some cool stuff to look at there. You can spend an entire day out there and totally lose track of time.
Take a tour on one of the Miami tour boats. It goes all along the bay, and even by all the celebrity houses (Palm, Star and Hibiscus islands).
If you rent a car, be careful where you park on the street. Some signage is incredibly poor, which means you WILL get towed. We wasted an entire day trying to get our car back since they have something like a million privately owned impound lots.
A trip out to the Everglades is pretty cool if your into that kind of stuff.
If you're going with your gf, wear sunglasses. There is so much tail out there it's ridiculous, and she will bust you. I learned that the hard way.
There are homeless people downtown that will ask you for money, but they are willing to work for it. For example, they will flag taxis for you, tell you how to get into parkades after hours, etc.
