Miami Etiquette & Practical Culture Notes

Local vendor

Overview

Miami is welcoming and multicultural. Small gestures—polite greetings, reasonable tipping, and asking before photos—go a long way.

Key points

Tipping: 15–20% is standard in restaurants; consider small tips for guides and drivers.
Photography: ask before photographing people in informal settings.
Respect local shops and religious sites—observe signage and dress modestly if entering places of worship.

Support local

Buying a snack or trinket from a small business helps sustain neighborhoods and is appreciated by vendors.
