Zoni’s campus is located on Collins Avenue in the heart of the Art Deco Historic District, on the trendiest street in South Beach and only one block from lovely beaches. South Beach is connected to the rest of Miami Beach and downtown Miami by a network of buses. Taxis and a public bicycle system are also conveniently accessible. However, the easiest way to travel within South Beach is on foot, as it is easily traversable and pedestrian friendly.
