The Barnacle Historic State Park, located in Miami, FL, invites visitors to immerse themselves in the history and natural beauty of Coconut Grove. This charming house, built in 1891, belonged to Ralph Middleton Munroe, a prominent figure in the area's history. Munroe's preservation efforts are evident in the property's lush forest and old trees, offering a glimpse into the past.

Situated on the shores of Biscayne Bay, The Barnacle allows guests to experience a simpler time when travel to Miami was by sea. The park features replicas of Munroe's sailboats, providing a unique insight into his maritime interests. Visitors can enjoy various activities such as outdoor concerts, picnics on the lawn, and leisurely walks along tree-lined paths.
