The Grove is the oldest continuously inhabited neighborhood of Miami. The lush bayside community of Coconut Grove is known for its tropical vibe – banyan trees, palms and live oaks mingle along quiet residential streets, and peacocks are known to roam wild.
Centered around Dinner Key Marina on Biscayne Bay, with sailboats moored offshore, the area’s natural beauty and laid-back vibe give it a bohemian charm. The Coconut Grove Sailing Club is a great place to learn to sail or simply enjoy the spectacle of a weekend regatta just offshore from Peacock or Kennedy parks. Sidewalk cafes abound, with popular spots like GreenStreet Cafe drawing crowds on sunny weekend afternoons. And with an abundance of local boutiques in this highly walkable area, as well as plentiful options in the CocoWalk shopping, dining and entertainment center, the neighborhood is popular with locals and visitors alike.
