Brief History

 

Shepard Broad, a Belarusian-born banker, lawyer, and philanthropist, was behind the idea. He bought the two deserted mangrove islands. It was during the post-war development period in Miami. The original names of the islands were Broadview (West) and Bay Harbor (East).

 

The incorporation into a town as ‘Bay Harbor Islands’ was in 1947.

 

Location

 

Bay Harbor Islands’ coverage is less than half a square mile. This small town is between 2 bigger cities, Miami Beach to the South and Aventura to the North.

 

The Bay Harbor Islands are two small islets, much like the shape of kidneys. They are in the north archipelago of small islands surrounding Biscayne Bay. Bay Harbor Islands is in the East of North Miami. Bal Harbor and Surfside, two other famous cities, are on its West side.

 

But despite the size of the Bay Harbor Islands, most will agree that this city features the best of both worlds. The area’s varied attractions are such an easy walk or drive. But the hustle and bustle of nearby Downtown Miami is quite a distance away. Both a refuge and a fun place to be - this is what Bay Harbor Islands represents.

 

Bay Harbor Islands - Picturesque Corner of Florida

 

You Will Love Bay Harbor Islands Because of These:

 

• Food and Dining – Bay Harbor Islands is near Miami Beach, Aventura, and Bal Harbour. Food and dining are top destinations here. Whatever fare you like, they're here. Be it American, Asian, Vegan, Italian, or Peruvian - all are available here. Or check the nearby neighborhoods. Plus, most of the restaurants in this town offer scenic views. Thus, for sure, there will be a lot of selfies and food photos you can take. Bay Harbor Islands is not only known for its top restaurants in Miami. Explore the neighboring areas for more gastronomic delights and fantastic restaurants. You have the most convenient access to these places at any time.

 

• Miami Modern Architecture - Bay Harbor Islands is walkable in every way due to its small coverage. You will be in awe of several homes and buildings with the Miami Modern architecture of the 1940s to 1950s. Your surroundings have character. These unique structures lend brightness and beauty to everyday life. For sure, art lovers will feel this town's vibrant art vibe. If there's another advantage here, it must be the free bus service. Locals and visitors alike can travel to the neighboring areas. It follows the true Miami style, such as walking and short commutes. Convenience is the key.

 

• Shopping – Don't keep your hopes too high. There's no overload of shopping malls and boutiques here. The town boasts a few strip mall stores, though. Explore Kane Concourse at East Island for some retail therapy. They feature everything from modern furniture to jewelry and branded rugs. But bear in mind that Bay Harbor Islands is not a shopping haven. It is not like Aventura and Bal Harbour. Since these two areas are so near the town, you will still get the chance to shop till you drop out. Shopaholics are still in for many retail trips at their whim. Besides, public transport is available. This benefit provides an easy commute for shopping at the neighboring luxurious malls.

 

• Leisure/Outdoors - Are you excited about fun outdoors? What activities are on your mind? Of course, one of South Florida's favorite leisure activities is playing golf. For Bay Harbor Islands, golf is a leisure sport, too. But some tourists prefer adventures like cruising waterways by boat. Or they charter a twin or triple pontoon to explore the islands, then head out into Biscayne Bay.

 

Outdoor Activities at Bay Harbor Islands

 

Other Activities Worth Checking Out:

 

1. One typical adventure is going North to the Oleta State River Park for bird-watching. You can also cruise around South for the small islets in the bay's North half.

 

2. Explore jet skiing or charter fishing, as some rental companies are on North Bay Island. It is a short drive away.

 

3. Some of the best beaches are at the town’s northern extent at Bal Harbour. The area is worth a visit for its elegance and upscale vibe.

 

4. Some locals and guests go for beautiful tropical places. These are the areas with palm trees and lush gardens. One place to explore is Bay Harbor’s Broadview Drive, a west island for the green surroundings. It’s a great way to escape from the hustle and bustle of the big city.
