About the Host
We are a group of Coconut Grove and Coral Gables neighbors working together to create a world-class urban trail through the oldest neighborhoods on Miami’s waterfront. As volunteers, the Friends of the Commodore Trail advocate for near-term and long-term improvements to the Trail. The Commodore Trail unites the full five-mile length of Coconut Grove to join the Coral Gables waterway neighborhoods. Starting at the Rickenbacker Causeway it includes South Bayshore Drive, winds past eleven parks, eight schools and the heart of The Grove’s business district. The Trail continues along the beautiful, canopied stretch of Main Highway and Douglas Road all the way to Coral Gables’ Cocoplum Circle. We invite you to join us!
