Oldest continuously inhabited neighborhood of Miami, Florida with numerous restaurants, open air and streetside cafes, and several waterfront restaurants and bars
General Information
How to Get There
Overview
Coconut Grove, known to locals simply as "The Grove," is Miami's oldest continuously inhabited neighborhood, tucked along Biscayne Bay south of Brickell and east of Coral Gables. Leafy streets, waterfront restaurants, and a lively nightlife scene fueled by nearby University of Miami and Florida International University students give it a laid-back, tropical feel that's distinct from the rest of downtown Miami.
Things to Do
Shop and Dine
CocoWalk and the Streets of Mayfair are the Grove's two open-air malls, anchoring a walkable strip of restaurants, cafes, and boutiques around Main and Grand Avenues.
Explore the Waterfront
Biscayne Bay borders the neighborhood's east side, home to Dinner Key Marina, the Coconut Grove Sailing Club, and Coral Reef Yacht Club — a hub for local boating and sailing.
Visit The Barnacle Historic State Park
Miami-Dade County's oldest home still standing in its original location, built in the late 1800s on the bay, surrounded by one of the last patches of tropical hardwood hammock in the area.
Tour Vizcaya Museum and Gardens
A grand early-1900s waterfront estate with formal Italian Renaissance–style gardens on the edge of the neighborhood.
Wander The Kampong
An 8-acre tropical botanical garden that's part of the National Tropical Botanical Garden system.
Relax in the Parks
Peacock Park and Kennedy Park line the bayfront with green space and water views.
