Top 5 Instagrammable Places Near Deering Bay

 Cue the camera — it's time to chase dreamy waterfronts, golden-hour glows, and breezy hideaways surrounding Deering Bay, Coral Gables' private coastal retreat tucked between mangroves, marinas, and endless blue skies. 

Snap through golden hours and nautical strokes as you capture the sun-drenched beauty wrapped around Deering Bay, a 220-acre resort-style sanctuary in the southernmost section of historic Coral Gables. 

Curating a world of championship greens, private marinas, and luxurious homes in all types and sizes, Deering Bay boasts a setting straight out of a slow-motion daydream, where nature and luxury blend like nowhere else in Miami.

 But if you think the beauty ends at the 18th hole, think again. 

With postcard spots just minutes from the gates — from kayak trails to dockside sunsets to wide-open bay views — Deering Bay puts you in a prime position for grids that turn followers into full-on Florida daydreamers. 

 So come along — whether you're in it for the likes or the memories, the backdrops around Deering Bay are ready for their close-up. 

And trust us, not even a bad angle stands a chance.

 Here are the top five Instagrammable places near Deering Bay. 

 1)    Deering Bay Yacht & Country Club  (Members & Guests Only!) 

 13610 Deering Bay Dr, Miami, FL 33158 

Do you know what the real flex is about living in Deering Bay?

There's a long list, but the all-access pass to Deering Bay's country club lifestyle wins by a landslide.

And not just for the reasons you might expect.

Beyond your breezy days on the water, the Deering Bay Marina — tucked into the Deering Bay Yacht & Country Club — holds a few extra cards in leveling up your Instagram feed.

Picture a show-stopping Arnold Palmer golf course, postcard-worthy clubhouse, palm-lined tennis courts, sun-splashed terraces for those effortless "just another Thursday" shots, and sleek yachts bobbing against the Biscayne Bay horizon, all waiting for their close-up at Deering Bay Yacht & Country Club.

It's a goldmine for effortless, off-the-cuff photos.

The best part is it's strictly members and guests only, so your posts stay as crisp, rare, and quietly glamorous as your zip code.

 2) Chapman Field Park    

 13601 Deering Bay Dr, Coral Gables, FL 33158 

Trade city noise for squawking herons, tangled trails, and mangrove mazes at Chapman Field Park, a low-key launchpad for outdoor adventure just 4 minutes from Deering Bay, right at the entrance!

Contrary to what you might think, it's not a park with souvenir stands or crowded boardwalks — Chapman Field Park is raw Florida, where muddy sneakers, salty breezes, and manatee sightings are part of the experience.

Slip a kayak into the still water, weave through leafy tunnels, or follow quiet dirt trails that lead to sun-bleached clearings made for hammock naps and lazy afternoon picnics.

And no, there's no need to rush — here, even the tide takes its time — so bring a camera, bring your curiosity, and let Chapman Field show you a side of Miami most people never see.

 3) Deering Estate    

 16701 SW 72nd Ave, Miami, FL 33157 

Stack your feed with a rare mix of history, nature, and adventure when you dive into the untouched beauty of Deering Estate, a local legend and one of South Florida's proudest treasures, just 10 minutes from Deering Bay.

A sprawling coastal sanctuary covering 444 acres of wild Miami landscape, Deering Estate — officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places — is a go-to playground for explorers and daydreamers alike, offering everything from guided nature hikes and butterfly walks to scenic boat rides, arts festivals, and outdoor concerts.

Hunting for a few fresh snapshots? You won't have to look far — every corner of this waterfront wonderland comes ready-made for the camera, with storybook lawns, towering palms, and timeless coastal views.

Paddle out under the full moon on a nighttime kayak tour or hop aboard a bay cruise and glide past the colorful relics of Stiltsville, a quirky village of stilt houses once known for throwing Miami's most off-the-radar parties.

Whichever path you pick, your followers will be double-tapping their way through serious wanderlust.

 4) Deering Estate People's Dock 

 Biscayne Bay, Palmetto Bay, FL 33157  

Soak up the magic hour in full color at the Deering Estate People's Dock, a tucked-away treasure and your front-row seat to South Florida's quiet coastal beauty, just 10 minutes from Deering Bay.

Hidden inside Deering Estate and whispered about by locals who know all the best photo spots, this unassuming dock strip serves unbeatable waterfront views and is a favorite hangout for casual fishing, dolphin sightings, birdwatching, and laid-back picnics with just the right amount of sea breeze.

Keep your phone handy — between the rippling reflections, slow-drifting clouds, and surprise cameos from curious manatees, you'd want to capture every second before the sun slips away.

 5) Brewing Buddha Cafe & Arthouse    

 8219 SW 124th St, Miami, FL 33156 

Let your senses run wild at Brewing Buddha Cafe & Arthouse, where rich brews, homegrown art, and cozy corners collide just 10 minutes from Deering Bay.

At first glance, Brewing Buddha Cafe & Arthouse might seem like your standard neighborhood coffee stop, but after one step through the door, you'll realize it's anything but ordinary.

Inside, you're greeted by soft couches that invite you to sink in, a lineup of sleek black chairs, walls wrapped in warm wood tones, and a canopy of leafy greens overhead, with a gallery's worth of vibrant art and candid photos by the owners themselves.

It's part coffeehouse, part creative playground — and every sip makes it harder to leave.
