February weather
February is when Miami starts to warm again after January. National Weather Service normals at Miami International Airport move the average high from 77°F on the first of the month to 79°F by the end, and the average low from 62°F to 64°F. Rain stays low, at about 2.2 inches for the month, so most days are sunny.
The ocean lags a little behind the air. NOAA's Virginia Key station averages about 73 to 74°F in February: fine for a swim on a hot afternoon, cool on a cloudy one. Evenings still call for a light layer, especially on the water or at a rooftop bar.

The February 13 to 15 weekend
In 2027 three things stack up. The boat show runs from Wednesday, February 10 to Sunday, February 14. The Coconut Grove Arts Festival takes over the Grove's bayfront from Saturday the 13th to Monday the 15th. And Monday the 15th is Presidents Day, a federal holiday that turns it into a long weekend for anyone flying in from the rest of the United States. Valentine's Day falls on the Sunday in the middle of it.
If one of those events is your reason to come, book flights and rooms now. If none of them is, the first ten days of February give you the same weather with fewer people. The South Beach Wine & Food Festival closes the month from February 25 to 28; its individual dinners and tastings sell separately, so check each event on sobewff.org.
