On either side of the Rickenbacker bridge there are good anchorage areas where you can go for a swim, paddleboard or just relax and enjoy the amazing vistas of the city from the bay.

Stop At: Elliott Key, Biscayne National Park, FL
Elliott Key, in Biscayne National Park, Florida is the largest key in the park and is the northernmost of the true Florida Keys. It's located east of Homestead, Florida. Elliott Key is popular for boating adventures. The Elliott Key Sandbar, or Sands cut, is one of Miami's most popular boating attractions, but is big enough to let us stay away from crowds and loud unpleasant music. It is a great area for swimming, snorkeling, paddleboarding and sunbathing on deck.
Please note that Elliott Key is 18 Nautical Miles South of our departure at Coconut Grove, so allow for an 8 hour experience to include this option.

Captain Rodrigo and Captain Steve made our afternoon sailing trip a memorable experience. Could not have asked for better host. Relaxed and fun. We’ll definitely be back on our next trip to Miami.

We had such a wonderful time with Rodrigo and Steve. They were excellent in explaining the basics of sailing and even allowed us to get our hands (briefly!) on the wheel. They were very attentive, kept our group well fed and took beautiful photos. We stopped and had a chance to spend some time in the water by the bay and really got to enjoy the beautiful sights of Miami and Key Biscayne. The sailing experience was incredible and truly one of a kind. Would highly recommend and look forward to our next trip with them!Fernando G

August 28 will go down as one of the top moments of my life thanks to Sailing Miami Bay - Biscayne Bay. I traveled with friends (English and French speaking) and the team accommodated all our language needs in addition to speaking Spanish. We spent four hours cruising the bay and it was so much fun. We played music, took pictures, ate, drank, swam and sailed, we were truly merry. The swimming in the bay was the best part. I’m a terrible swimmer but fortunately, there were life vests and floatees on the boat. Never one to miss an adventure, I put on a life vest and jumped in. Best decision ever!! Stephen and Rodrigo were a blast - funny, great personalities and overall great hosts. If you have a little extra money, you should splurge on a carne asada lunch. I’m told Stephen will wow you with his culinary skills. If you’re in Miami / Ft. Lauderdale don’t miss an opportunity to enjoy the water and swim in the Bay.
