The Barnacle Historic State Park is a picturesque park that is situated along the shores of Biscayne Bay in Miami, Florida. This historic state park was once the home of the popular Ralph Middleton Munroe, one of the most influential and charming pioneers in Coconut Grove. There are two complete replicas of his boats on display; the Egret, an 1886 sharpie ketch vessel measuring 28 feet in length, and the Flying Proa, a vessel designed in 1898. Visitors can enjoy a tour with old friends or new, have a nice picnic on the park’s lawn, relax in a rocking chair on the front porch as sailboats glide by, or go for a lovely stroll along the tree-lined paths.
