Checked out of your hotel but not ready to leave the beach? BagsAway's South Beach (Ocean Drive) location is about 5 minutes' walk from Ocean Drive and Lummus Park and lists hours of 9am to 11pm every day. Book online in minutes, pay per bag, and spend your last hours on the sand instead of guarding a suitcase.
Why store your bags in Miami Beach
- Hotel checkout is usually in the morning, while many flights and cruises leave later in the day.
- Arriving early? Drop your bags and head straight to the beach instead of waiting for check-in.
- Dragging a suitcase across sand or along a busy Ocean Drive is no fun, and bags left on a beach towel are easy to lose track of.
- Coming over from Downtown Miami or a cruise for the day? Leave the extra bags and travel light.
