🏫 Schools & Government Stuff (AKA the boring but important stuff)

• Closed:

  • Public schools

  • Courts

  • Post offices

  • Libraries

  • City halls
    Yes, even your mom’s fave clerk at the post office gets a day off.

🛒 Grocery Stores & Pharmacies (for your last-minute BBQ crisis)

Forgot the hot dog buns? Out of Solo cups? It’s giving “last-minute Walmart run.”

• Closed: Costco (RIP to the $1.50 hot dog combo)

• Open: Publix, Aldi, Target, Trader Joe’s, Walmart, Whole Foods

• Pharmacies: CVS, Walgreens, and Navarro are open but might be running on ✨vibes✨ aka reduced hours—so check first.

🌊 Beaches & Parks (nature-core, but make it Miami)

• Open: All the major parks and beaches in Miami-Dade and Broward

• Bonus: Florida State Parks = free entry all weekend 🎉

• Deering Estate = $8 admission

• Vizcaya Museum & Gardens = Open 9:30 AM–4:30 PM
  Translation: You’ve got zero excuse to stay inside.

🛍️ Malls (yes, we’re shopping… with a side of sales)

• Open + Deals: Sawgrass, Aventura, Dolphin, and the squad are all open.
  Expect Memorial Day sales to be in full effect, so go ahead—add to cart.

🚈 Public Transit (because not everyone’s Ubering)

• Miami-Dade:

  • Metrorail + Metromover = Normal weekend schedule

  • Metrobus + MetroConnect = Sunday schedule

  • MetroLink = No service

• Broward Transit:

  • Sunday service only, no Express or Breeze buses

• Tri-Rail: Weekend schedule—plan accordingly if you’re hopping cities.

So, TL;DR:

Costco is closed, but your beach day and retail therapy plans are safe.
Hit the beach, shop the sales, and vibe responsibly this Memorial Day. ✌️
