Bal Harbour

Bal Harbour: The Pinnacle of Oceanfront Luxury

Occupying just a third of a square mile between the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay, Bal Harbour may be one of the smallest municipalities in Miami-Dade County, but it is undeniably one of the most exclusive. Situated south of Haulover and Sunny Isles Beach, and north of Surfside, the village is defined by its abundant landscaping, curving arc of pristine beach, and a lush walking path.

Bal Harbour is globally recognized for its large waterfront estates and oceanfront luxury condominiums. Buyers here demand the highest standards of architecture, privacy, and white-glove service.

Bay Harbor Islands

Bay Harbor Islands: A Private Waterfront Haven

Just west of Bal Harbour, separated by the waters of Biscayne Bay, lie the Bay Harbor Islands. This tight-knit community is a mix of families, retirees, and young professionals who enjoy a range of local events, including an annual Christmas parade and vibrant art festivals.

The town is situated on two distinct islands that offer a highly exclusive lifestyle:

The West Island — Broadview

Spanning 103 acres, this island is occupied entirely by luxurious, large single-family homes. Many of these exclusive waterfront estates boast magnificent, unobstructed views of Indian Creek Island or Haulover.

The East Island — Biscaya

Covering 150 acres, the East Island is home to boutique luxury condominiums and a vibrant commercial district featuring medical offices, fashionable shops, art galleries, and fine dining restaurants.

Located in the heart of Miami-Dade County, Bay Harbor Islands provides a quiet retreat that is still just minutes away from the energy of South Beach and Aventura.

Lifestyle & Amenities

Lifestyle & World-Class Amenities

The centerpiece of the local lifestyle is the world-famous Bal Harbour Shops. Set against a beautiful tropical garden backdrop, this open-air luxury oasis features an internationally renowned collection of boutiques, including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Bottega Veneta, and Tiffany & Co.

Beyond shopping and dining, residents enjoy access to pristine beaches, local parks, and a private Marina located within the gated section of Bal Harbour Village. Just to the north, Haulover Beach Park offers scenic jogging and cycling trails, picnic areas, and fishing piers, providing endless outdoor recreation.

The Bal Harbour Lifestyle

Few destinations in the world combine oceanfront seclusion, world-class retail, Michelin-caliber dining, and a marina — all within a single, walkable village of just 5,000 residents. Bal Harbour and Bay Harbor Islands deliver exactly that. While those looking for a fast-paced urban lifestyle may prefer exploring luxury Brickell condos for sale
