Created in 1923 from a coral rock quarry, where much of the original coral rock was used to border and further accentuate the pool. The 820,000 gallon pool is fed with spring water from an underground aquifer. In the spring and summer seasons, the pool is filled and drained daily!
Hugging the shoreline of Biscayne Bay, Coconut Grove is an upscale, leafy neighborhood with relaxed sidewalk cafes and chic shops in and around the CocoWalk mall. The area's several green spaces include bay-front Barnacle Historic State Park, home to a mangrove forest, and the iconic Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, centered on a lavish Italian-style villa. Sailing clubs and marinas dot the waterfront.
Paddle along the local marina peacefully as you get to admire multi-million yachts docked on the piers of the marina. This location is great for beginners because of how calm the water always is. The three small beautiful tropical islands which protect our marina for the ocean waves are great to get off on an explore. You may even bring some snacks and have a picnic on one of the islands if you are feeling adventurous!
