Crandon Park is popular for its beautiful beach, rich coastal environment, unique fossilized…read moremangrove reef, protected wetlands, birding sites and extensive range of sports and outdoor activities. Crandon Park is home to various ecosystems, from dunes and mangroves to coastal hammock and seagrass beds and rare plants like the Biscayne prickly ash and beach peanut. Underwater, fossilized reefs and colorful sea life give divers and snorkelers plenty to explore. Crandon Park comprises the northern portion of Key Biscayne (almost 7 miles southeast of Miami). The key began as a coconut plantation, before being donated with the stipulation that Miami-Dade County uses the land as a public park. With its golf and tennis facilities, unique eco-adventures and breathtaking beach, Crandon Park offers something for everyone Parking: Weekdays $7 and Weekends $10

I was here as a child when it was a zoo. I'm happy to see it remains a park with beach access…read more More importantly, the beach often hosts some endangered migratory birds, Piping Plovers. These birds are adorable, but they are threatened by habitat loss. There is a volunteer who regularly checks for Piping Plovers during migration, and she looks for bands that reveal the path of the bird's migratory flight. It's important that we have places for these birds to forage, and I hope the city continues to protect this beach for that use. The bathrooms were a welcome amenity. I had problems paying the parking fee, it was a complicated process. There were about 10 peafowl (peacocks) that roamed the park, a remaining vestige of when this was a zoo. There were many wild birds throughout the park.

We love the Yacht Club!…read more We have friends that take us here and we absolutely always have a great time. We grab pizza, carpaccio and lomo saltado from the restaurant that's enclosed. The service is always so pleasant. Granted the last time we were there it was pretty empty and we didn't know who our server was so it was hard to track someone down to order but thankfully the bartender was available! Even with that little hiccup we still had a great time! Can't wait to go back.

Key Biscayne Yacht Club gave the perfect atmosphere to be cozy with your family and/or friends for Christmas. I went here for a work Christmas party. I enjoyed a pour of the Faust Cabernet before and during my meal. For appetizers, I ordered their ceviche - the saltiness of the fish with the sour lime was accompanied well with the mangoes. I ordered off the menu and got the special of that evening. It was a miso glazed Halibut set on a bed of lo mein. I love how the fish was very soft and tender and basically melted in my mouth. For dessert, I ordered their seasonal sorbet to cleanse the palette. Our server was also very attentive. I believe when you are with a big group, there is a minimum of $100 to spend per person. Overall, you are paying for the experience and for the good food.

This place was awesome! My friend and I went to Miami spontaneously a couple weekends ago and…read morereally wanted to snorkel while out there. I found these guys on Yelp and decided to call them to see if there was any last minute availability. To my surprise, they had a tour available for the following day, our last day in Miami. That same night I got a call from the owner. I was dreading answering the phone because I thought for sure it was them calling to cancel on us because of some unforeseen circumstances. But I was wrong! The owner called to let us know that he had an even better tour (one more suitable for what we were trying to do) at a much more convenient time! I really appreciate that they thought to call us and offer us the more beneficial package. I should add that the owner was super kind and helped me throughout the entire booking process. He was very patient with me while I struggled to book online. There site is super easy to navigate, I'm just not tech-savvy. When we did go out on our tour, we were given the greatest captain/instructor. Captain Sasha was so sweet and funny and knowledgeable. It was my first time snorkeling and he walked me through everything and made it all so simple. He was kind enough to take a ton of wonderful photos of my friend and me while we snorkeled. He let us take our time and enjoy ourselves and was such a pleasure. He even gave us a tour of the area which I know he did not have to do. I am so glad that we went with these guys during our time in Miami. Highly recommend them! Thanks again!

We checked in, left an ID, signed their waiver, and then we were off to get life vests and paddles/kayaks. They also rent bikes and paddle boards. (We stuck with kayaking for the day.) the weather was gorgeous and the water and scenery beautiful once we got out. I would recommend taking lunch and picnicking on their many tables or surrounding grass area. Another tip, show your reservation for kayaking to the guard/park entrance official that you booked a trip with VKOC and they will waive the $8 park fee. And then enjoy the beaches and scenery.

Tip: make your reservation online.

I would highly recommend going to see Marshall at Mack's Fish Camp. He was the most knowledgeable,…read moreyet humble tour guide one could ask for. He was extremely patient answering our group's many questions and educated us on numerous aspects of the ecosystem. The camp itself goes back six generations, which gives a very personal touch to the experience. Marshall went above and beyond "just" an airboat ride, making a necklace for us out of a river plant, stopping at a private island to allow us to explore, and introducing us to the people and animals that are part of the camp. Marshall was in constant communication leading up to the tour, professional, and accommodating. This excursion should be a must-do for anyone visiting the area.

Great wonderful people - super nice, super knowledgeable, multigenerational run business. Known as Gladesmen - these folks are salt of the earth.

Captain Cody, a 3rd generation Gladesman, was our guide and all I can say is if the zombie apocalypse happens tomorrow I am seeking refuge in the Everglades with Capt Cody on my team!

There is no shade on the grounds so much of the time was spent standing in the hot sun. Waiting to get into an airboat was a bit chaotic and tiresome. There were shade canopies along the queue but they were not deployed for some reason. Staff seemed a bit disorganized, groups were confused on where to go and given mixed directions from staff members. The experience on the boat was nice and we saw a variety of wildlife. The captain was knowledgeable and spotted alligators quickly. The gator show was fun but short. The host Paul was funny and engaging, the entire audience was captivated. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. Our highlight was getting to hold a baby alligator and knowing that our money was going to one of the only no kill gator rescues!

The rental place is a bit of a walk and although we filled out the waivers prior, we were asked to do so again. There seemed to be a technical difficulty with the website not registering properly so our check in process was a bit lengthy.

Eventually we ended up just us 2 (separate kayaks) and I'm so glad we brought a portable speaker because we were able to curate the vibes on such a romantic day. The views were immaculate and I even told some coworkers about it in case they were interested in purchasing. Can't complain on the experience!
