Why Coconut Grove
Why Coconut Grove Is Perfect for Party Boat
A party boat from Coconut Grove appeals to groups who want to celebrate on the water without the intensity of the Haulover Sandbar crowd. The Grove's protected lower bay provides calm water for a smooth party experience, and Mercy's Sandbar offers a swimming stop with a more local, laid-back feel. The waterfront departure passes Vizcaya and the Sailing Club, adding visual interest before the anchor drops and the music takes over. For birthday celebrations, friend group outings, and intimate parties where conversation matters as much as dancing, the Coconut Grove party boat hits the right notes.

Know Before You Go
Your Guide to Coconut Grove
Miami's bohemian waterfront village
About the Area
Coconut Grove is Miami's oldest continuously inhabited neighborhood, founded in the 1800s. Its waterfront along Biscayne Bay has a relaxed, artistic vibe with banyan-shaded streets, sidewalk cafes, and a strong sailing culture centered around Dinner Key Marina — one of the largest marinas in the US.
On the Water
A charming, tree-lined waterfront with a laid-back nautical atmosphere. Dinner Key Marina hosts hundreds of sailboats and motor yachts. The Coconut Grove Sailing Club has been active since 1945. The pace is slower and more intimate than downtown or South Beach.
Dinner Key is one of the most protected anchorages in Miami — the bay here is wide, calm, and sheltered from easterly winds. Departures are smooth even when other parts of the bay are choppy.
Key Biscayne and Stiltsville are 15 minutes south. Star Island and the downtown skyline are 15 minutes north. The Rickenbacker Causeway bridge is visible from the waterfront.
Getting There
Coconut Grove is accessible from US-1 and Bayshore Drive. Free and metered street parking is available around the marina. The Coconut Grove Metrorail station connects to downtown. Rideshare from Brickell takes 10 minutes.
What Guests Love
- A relaxed, local departure point away from the tourist crowds

Insider Tips
- The Coconut Grove Arts Festival in February is one of the nation's top outdoor art festivals — combine it with a charter for a memorable weekend.
- Dinner Key Marina is named after Pan American Airways, which operated seaplane flights to Havana from here in the 1930s and 40s.
- The stretch between Coconut Grove and Key Biscayne passes the Vizcaya estate — your captain can slow down for photos of this National Historic Landmark from the water.
Mid-size yachts (48-55 feet) are popular from the Grove for their comfort and maneuverability. The bay here favors relaxed cruising over high-speed adventure.
