Security Operations in South Beach
South Beach — the southern tip of Miami Beach Island between 1st Street and 23rd Street — operates as one of the most concentrated entertainment districts in the United States.

Vice Miami Global provides security services calibrated to South Beach's specific nightlife, hotel, and VIP event environment.
