More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sun hits Biscayne Bay like a bright coin as you step aboard a 27-foot catamaran at Dinner Key Marina. Conversation drifts with the tide, laughter rolls off the fiberglass, and the captain eases the boat into open water — the city skyline shrinking, mangrove shadows growing. The bay’s shallow shoals dare you to dive in; palms lean toward the water as if to watch.

BYOB but prep coolers
Bring drinks in a soft-sided cooler and pre-chill items — space is limited onboard and glass is discouraged.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
The bay’s seagrass and marine life are sensitive; choose reef-safe sunscreen to reduce environmental impact.
Arrive early for loading and parking
Allow 20–30 minutes to park at Dinner Key Marina and load gear — it speeds departure and avoids crowding.
If prone to seasickness, medicate ahead
Light chop can occur; take preventative medication before boarding and sit mid-boat where motion is minimized.
