\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\u00a0\u2013\u00a0 \t\t\t\u00a0\u00b7\u00a0 May is packed with all kinds of new things to do around Miami<\/a>, but the best show in town is arguably happening right above us. We\u2019re kicking off the month with the year\u2019s fifth full moon \u2014 the Flower Moon. It also happens to be the first of two happening in the same month, so here\u2019s everything you need to know about catching these celestial marvels!<\/p>\n Why is it called the Flower Moon?<\/p>\n You might\u2019ve guessed that May\u2019s moon is named after the spring season. And you\u2019re right! The Flower Moon is derived from the abundance of florals during this time of year, as seen by the Algonquin tribes of what is now the north-eastern U.S. Other names for the phenomenon include the Corn or Corn Planting Moon, which likely refers to the late spring, early summer corn planting season.<\/p>\n When can I see the Flower Moon in Miami?<\/p>\n The moon will be on \u201cfull bloom\u201d at 1:23 p.m. ET on May 1st, according to the Farmer\u2019s Almanac<\/a>. Because this happens in the middle of the day, you\u2019ll want to catch the moon right as it creeps over the horizon. Per Time and Date<\/a>, sunset will be at 7:52 p.m. and moonrise at 8:06 p.m. that night for Miami.<\/p>\n Nonetheless, the moon will look full by nighttime and in the following days, so you have plenty of time to catch it in all its glory!<\/p>\n How can I best see the Flower Moon?<\/p>\n For optimal viewing, it\u2019s recommended to seek out places that face east and are up high, so that you can get a clear view of the horizon. The city lights won\u2019t matter quite as much for a bright full moon, but an unobstructed horizon is key.<\/p>\n When is the next full moon?<\/p>\n While the Flower Moon falls on the very first day of the month, May is actually featuring two moons! The next one will peak on May 31st, making it a rare Blue Moon. It will also appear smaller than usual, due to it occurring just before apogee (the point farthest from Earth). Known as a micromoon, when a full moon happens near apogee it appears roughly 14% smaller and 30% dimmer than a supermoon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u00a0\u2013\u00a0 Staff Writer \u00a0\u00b7\u00a0 April 25, 2026 May is packed with all kinds of new things to do…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":245801,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[225,227,226],"class_list":{"0":"post-245800","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-hialeah","8":"tag-hialeah","9":"tag-hialeah-headlines","10":"tag-hialeah-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=245800"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245800\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/245801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=245800"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=245800"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=245800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/profile1-150x150.jpg\")
