GREAT video!
I grew up in Hollywood but since retiring I have lived in
Lake Wales. We are bringing some friends down south and I would like to shoot both
night / day videos and stills of the sky line where you were.
Where exactly were you...is it safe at night there too?

The water views of the skyline are becoming more and more restricted. This view is still available. Take the Rickenbacker Causeway (to Key Biscayne). There is a toll by plate or Sunpass fee. Keep to the right at all times. Take the Ramp off to the right before the bridge starts. Follow it as it curves under the bridge. There is a small parking lot under the bridge. It is generally safe here. A lot of police cars came through here and there are always fishermen. Here is a map I made for you

This is a good shooting spot for a sunset timelapse with the gradual illumination of the apartment building windows. I did one of those several years ago and it is on file in my Vimeo site.

Dale where are the Closest hotels to the spot you told me about ?

 

[TwoSticks]

Very nice, I really enjoyed the video. I have flown just north of there near the cruise ship port. The area does have a lot of restriction but there are open areas where you can get. near the ships. We were headed out on one and it was nice to get some shots prior to heading out.

It all depends on your budget but the closest is the Hilton Garden Inn at the the entrance to Key Biscayne tollway
There are hotels all along Brickell Avenue for any budget
