Boat storage near Coconut Grove splits into two different markets: marina storage on the water (Dinner Key and the Grove's yacht basin) and trailer-boat lots inland, where most Grove-area boaters actually keep their boats. The price difference is dramatic — here's both sides.

Coconut Grove is Miami's sailing capital — Dinner Key Marina is the city's largest public marina, and the Grove's mooring field is famous. But wet slips and moorings serve boats that live in the water. If your boat is on a trailer — or you want it out of the water between uses — the Grove itself has essentially no trailer storage: land here is worth too much. Your trailer boat goes 15-25 minutes inland.
Marina Storage Near Coconut Grove
- Dinner Key Marina (City of Miami): wet slips, moorings, and dinghy racks on Biscayne Bay — the closest boat storage to the Grove, and the closest ramp. Slip rates run $15-$25/ft/month for residents; moorings ~$300-$450/month. Waitlists are long — join early.
- Grove-area private marinas and yacht clubs: limited transient and member storage; dry storage for small sailboats at sailing clubs.
- Dry stack: the nearest dry-stack marinas are in Coconut Grove's south basin and further south toward Matheson Hammock/Coral Reef — $350-$550/month for a 24-26 ft boat with launch service. See dry stack pricing and wet slip rental.

Is dry stack or trailer storage better near the Grove?
Dry stack wins if your boat isn't trailerable or you want launch service ($350-$550/month at Grove-area marinas). Trailer storage wins on price and access ($90-$160/month, launch on your own schedule at 4am if you want). Enclosed trailer storage ($280-$400) adds hurricane protection dry stack partially provides.
What happens to Grove boats in hurricanes?
Moored and slipped boats in the Grove ride out storms in the bay — Dinner Key is a protected basin but not surge-proof. Trailer boats hauled to enclosed inland units are the safest option; outdoor lots offer no protection. City of Miami often orders mooring-field evacuations ahead of major storms.
