Why Coconut Grove
Why Coconut Grove Is Perfect for Boat Rental
Coconut Grove's boat rental experience is defined by the neighborhood's bohemian charm and the calm waters of lower Biscayne Bay. Depart from Dinner Key past the Coconut Grove Sailing Club, one of the oldest sailing institutions in South Florida, and cruise along the bayfront where Vizcaya's gardens cascade toward the waterline. Mercy's Sandbar, a local favorite anchoring spot in the bay, offers shallow water for swimming and relaxing without the crowds of Haulover. The protected lower bay waters are calm enough for families with small children and anyone who prefers a peaceful cruise over a party-boat atmosphere. Coconut Grove is the boater's quiet gem.
