Factory and Johnny Rockets. Shopping is also abundant in the Grove, with two large open-air malls,
CocoWalk, Streets of Mayfair[1] , and many other street shops and boutiques. The Coconut Grove

musicals. By night, the Grove becomes a center of nightlife frequented by young professionals and
students from the University of Miami.
The southern border of Coconut Grove is Biscayne Bay, which lends itself to a boating community. The
area features a sailing club (Coconut Grove Sailing Club[3]), a yacht club (Coral Reef Yacht Club[4])
and a marina (Dinner Key Marina[5]). Pan Am's seaplane operations were based in Dinner Key, and
the Miami City Hall is based in the old Pan Am terminal building.

the National Tropical Botanical Garden.
Coconut Grove is also the location of The Barnacle Historic State Park. Built in the late 1800s, the
