Last year, the Four Seasons in Miami became the first green-certified hotel in Miami. It’s clear that travel companies and travelers themselves are becoming increasingly conscious of how their actions impact the environment. Today is Earth Day, why not think about going green on your next trip to Miami?

Here are some Miami attractions where you can celebrate animal and plant life.

  1. Miami Seaquarium features marine shows and educational exhibits set against the beautiful backdrop of Biscayne Bay. See dolphins, sharks, sea lions, manatees, and more.
  2. Miami MetroZoo is ranked among the top 10 zoos in the country. With 300 acres showcasing over 1,300 animals, the Miami MetroZoo offers something for everyone, from behind-the-scenes zookeeper tours to safari cycle rentals to animal feeding encounters.
  3. Miami Beach Bicycle Center offers a way to see Miami without creating traffic or pollution. Ride past popular destinations like Ocean Drive, Lincoln Road, Coconut Grove, and more.
  4. Pelican Harbor Seabird Station has been rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing sick and injured seabirds for over 25 years. The station welcomes visitors to tour the facility and learn more about preserving South Florida’s seabird populations.
  5. Miami Science Museum boasts South Florida’s largest natural history collection with over 60,000 artifacts and specimens covering zoology, paleontology, and more. They also offer a wildlife center and a planetarium.
