Today took us the short hop (0.77 miles) to the Key Biscayne Yacht Club. We nestled in next to a beautiful 70 ft. ketch. The Yacht Club is small and classic Florida style, but a new pool and gazebo has been added, just opening two weeks ago.
The pool was is full use on this Sunday afternoon, with the gazebo chef cooking up calamari, cracked conch, chicken sandwiches, hamburgers, and all manner of picnic fare.
After a refreshing swim, we came for a late dinner, disappointed they ran out of conch and calamari.
The next day, we made the short trip across Biscayne Bay to Coral Reef Yacht Club. The clubhouse reminded us of the style of the Fisher Mansion on the Detroit River.
The town here is Coconut Grove, a trendy suburb of Miami, an easy walk from the dock.
We dined in the evening at Chart House, a classic seafood restaurant right on the channel. Calamari, mussels and firecracker shrimp made up for last night!
