Haulover Inlet

Haulover Inlet is located in Miami Beach, Florida, a man-made body of water that was cut out of the land in the 1920s. Today it has become a popular recreation spot, whilst allowing quick access to Miami.

The inlet cuts through the peninsula's narrowest point, extending eastward towards the Miami River. Along this section three main cities have grown, including the city from which the inlet begins. In fact, it is bordered on the one side of its waterway by Bal Harbour. To its north is a fixed type of bridge that allows road access to the other part of the peninsula.

The inlet is home to a variety of birds and animals. Dolphins and sharks are often seen scurrying up the inlet as birds such pelicans and storks fly overhead. Even in its depths, fish provide ample fishing opportunities for anglers along its shoreline and from the many boats that use it for fishing tours.

For over fifty years, Haulover Inlet has been the site of many historic landmarks. Today its importance as a seaway for charter captains cannot be underestimated. In fact, its main dock is the only one to possess a marker labelling its as a fishing type dock.
