There's lots of good shopping the West Palm and Naples area if that's your thing. If you want to make a stop in Ft. Lauderdale, they have nice cruises and boat rides up and down the intercoastal.
If you've got a lot of extra time, I would recommend doing the drive to Orlando. It's approximately 4 hours from Miami if you want to go the theme parks.
Florida drivers....errr....it depends on where you'll be. Orlando is scary because there's a lot of tourists who don't know where they're going. West Palm has the old people who can't see the road. Miami and Ft. Lauderdale has the crazy, fast drivers. If you drive to West Palm from Miami, I'd advise taking the Florida Turnpike over I-95 since there's less accidents/crazy drivers on that road.
