Coconut Grove

Experience a suburb that has flourished with artsy vibes and countercultural heritage as you enjoy fine dining, historic landmarks and boutiques around its streets.

Learn about the shifting cultures of Coconut Grove, Miami’s oldest neighbourhood. Known locally as "the Grove," this suburb has evolved since its formation in 1925. In the 1960s, it was the site of Miami's countercultural movement. Visit the site where Jim Morrison, the Doors lead singer, was arrested after his concert at Dinner Key. In its modern form, the Grove's rich culture of art and entertainment is sure to delight.

Find excellent shopping and dining options throughout the neighbourhood. People watch from an open-air restaurant or café before joining the crowds at Coco Walk. This up-market mall features popular boutiques, more restaurants and a cinema. As evening falls, Coconut Grove attracts a lively student population with a diverse range of bars and clubs. Bring your dancing shoes.

Take a moment from modern delights as you stroll Charles Avenue, one of Florida's oldest streets. This street, constructed in the 19th century by Bahamian settlers, faithfully preserves its old-fashioned decor with narrow shotgun houses, churches and a cemetery. This curious district was the setting for Michael Jackson's famed music video, Thriller. Step into a traditional Renaissance-style dwelling at Villa Vizcaya, which hosts a museum and a pretty garden.

Check at tourism centres throughout the year for events being held in the area. Spend Presidents Day weekend in February admiring the works of the Coconut Grove Arts Festival. During this display, hundreds of artists are featured in the Grove's outdoor setting.

Watch the curious good-humoured displays of the King Mango Strut, a parade held on each year's final Sunday. Events from throughout the year are represented in satirical floats. Foodies will enjoy the gourmet dish and wine tastings at the Great Taste of the Grove in April or the Goombay Festival in June.

Find Coconut Grove between Biscayne Bay, to the east, and Coral Gables, to the west. Get there by car or ride the Miami Metrorail to stops at Coconut Grove or Douglas Road station.
