One of the main perks of living in Miami is its vicinity to the sea. There are few other places on the planet that do waterfront living quite like South Florida. Miami is something of a Mecca for boat lovers, with so many waterfront neighborhoods, like Coconut Grove, Miami Beach, Key Biscayne, Brickell and Edgewater, to name a few. Luckily, if you are a skipper at heart but want the comfort of a condo, there are plenty of opportunities to snatch up real estate in the sunshine state that put you right in the midst of the Miami boating community. And with marinas at every turn, it won’t be hard to find like-minded sea-farers!

Let’s take a look at some of the best Coconut Grove condos for boaters:

Why Coconut Grove?

Coconut Grove is the oldest neighborhood in Miami, and with some of the best marinas that Miami has to offer, it’s an obvious choice for boaters, sailors and fishing enthusiasts. Places such as the Dinner Key Marina and the Coconut Grove Sailing Club are well regarded amongst the local yachting community.

The Dinner Key Marina offers access to brilliant water and an equally bubbling social scene, while the Coconut Grove Sailing Club provides a historic community feel, with years of tradition from its founding back in 1946. The sailing club also has plenty of events giving you the opportunity to mingle with great people all year round. It also plays host to a number of internationally recognized sailing regattas for the more competitive, as well as a juniors sailing program.

There are also plenty of brilliant schools in the area (public and private) making Coconut Grove a great place to start a family nest, all whilst still being able to look after your beloved boat, and enjoy one of your favorite, family friendly hobbies.
