The Amtrak Station is about ten miles from the Port of Miami. If you google hotel rates miami, you can select one for the dates you need, and check Uber or Lyft for the cost of getting there. Another ride from hotel to port will be necessary.

The distance from PortMiami to the primary regional train stations in downtown Miami is remarkably short, typically between 2 to 3 miles. If you are heading to MiamiCentral, which serves as the hub for the high-speed Brightline train and various local transit lines, the journey by taxi or rideshare usually takes only 5 to 10 minutes depending on port traffic. For those using the Miami Metrorail or the Tri-Rail (via the Government Center station), the distance is similarly minimal. Because the port is located on Dodge Island, you must cross the Port Boulevard bridge to reach the mainland. While walking is technically possible and would take about 40 to 50 minutes, it is not recommended with luggage due to the heat and industrial nature of the port roads. In 2026, many cruise travelers also utilize the "Coral Way" trolley or local bus line 100 for a more budget-friendly high-fidelity connection to the city's rail infrastructure.
