Miami-Dade County · Historic Bayfront Village
Coconut Grove
South Florida's original bayfront village.
Neighborhood overview
What it's like to live in Coconut Grove
Coconut Grove is Miami's oldest continuously inhabited neighborhood, a leafy bayfront village where banyan trees shade streets of historic cottages, modern Mediterranean homes, and waterfront compounds. It is the rare Miami address that feels like a small town.
The Grove has its own rhythm: farmers markets, waterfront parks, and a main street that fills with strollers and cyclists on weekends. It is a favorite for families, artists, and anyone who wants nature woven into city life.
The daily rhythm
Bohemian and green. Street musicians, boutique shops, the Grove's classic waterfront parks, and a pace that slows down near the water. CocoWalk and the Grove's restaurant row keep it lively without the downtown rush.

Waterfront & outdoor access
Peacock and Kennedy parks frame the bayfront, and Dinner Key Marina is a base for sailing and boat life. The canopy of oaks and banyans makes even a simple walk feel like an escape.
Getting around South Florida
The Grove connects easily to US-1 and the Palmetto Expressway, with downtown Miami and Brickell 15 to 20 minutes north and the airport on the other side of the county line.
