Acqualina Resort & Residences on the Beach is a special place where luxury and pampering for adults easily coexists with non-stop activities for kids and families. With so many family-focused activities available on premises, kids will never utter the words, \u201cI\u2019m bored.\u201d Parents can send children off to the complimentary Kids Club, AcquaMarine, for an elevated version of \u201csummer camp,\u201d while they head to the serene adults-only pool or enjoy much-needed self-care at the award-winning Acqualina Spa. Below, you\u2019ll find an array of on-property activities meant for soaking up summer to the fullest.<\/p>\n

Acqua-Adventures Under & Above The Sea<\/strong><\/p>\n

With a prime location fronting a private white-sand beach and the sparkling aqua-blue waters of the Atlantic, Acqualina makes it easy for guests to enjoy it all with aquatic adventures available throughout the resort. If you\u2019d like to peep Miami\u2019s vibrant coral reefs up close and personal, learn to scuba dive<\/a> while on vacation. Acqualina offers scuba certification courses conveniently located at the resort through Squalo Divers. If you want to snorkel or explore the water on kayaks or paddle boards, rentable water toys are available at Sunny Isles Beach Water Sports<\/a>, a 20-minute walk or a 5-minute drive from the resort.<\/p>\n

If your child watches Disney\u2019s \u201cThe Little Mermaid\u201d movie on repeat, bring their animated dreams to life with an AquaMermaid<\/a> experience. During this experience, kids ages 2-7 can play games and take photos with a mermaid. Those ages 7 or older can slip on a mermaid tail and learn how to swim like a graceful mermaid. (We won\u2019t judge if parents want to join in on the fun!) And if you\u2019re looking to come back from vacation with child swimming like a fish, swim instructor, Oscar, is available for private lessons.<\/p>\n
