Originally settled in the 1800s, Coconut Grove is the oldest continuously inhabited community in Miami and remains a charming, bayside village in the heart of Miami’s bustling urban vibe. Coconut Grove’s pedestrian-friendly village center is lined with sunny sidewalk cafes, elegant art galleries, and stylish, independent boutiques, giving the small village a laid-back bohemian charm. Sip coffee in the sun and relax at one of the cafés as you watch the world stroll by.
Coconut Grove enjoys some open-air parks with views over the bay, such as Kennedy Park, Peacock Park, and the Barnacle Historic State Park, where hiking, biking, and picnicking can be enjoyed.
The area also boasts CocoWalk, a large multi-level entertainment complex with shops, restaurants, and a vibrant nightlife, and a major attraction for both locals and tourists. An afternoon exploring Coconut Grove is one of the best things to do in Miami.
