Surf trips from Miami

Last-minute surf trips from Miami (MIA).

Central America and the Caribbean in two to four hours, most of it nonstop. We hold fares from MIA to 105 of the breaks we watch, in 15 countries. Below: which are in season in October, what a four-night trip costs, and every break with a fare from here.

61 of these 105 fares come from our own alerts: the middle half of the round-trip fares we quoted on that route, priced 3 to 10 days before departure, since June 2026 (marked "based on N alerts"). The rest are Google Flights typical ranges, the route's usual for the month across all booking lead times, so a last-minute fare often lands above them. Checked Oct 24.

Which surf trips from Miami are in season in October?
