About This Spot
The Bal Harbour Jetty is a favorite local fishing spot where the inlet connects Biscayne Bay to the Atlantic Ocean. This jetty gives shore-based anglers access to some of the same action as offshore boats, with strong currents pulling in baitfish and predators. Common catches include snook, tarpon, mutton snapper, jacks, and the occasional blackfin tuna or kingfish. The rocky structure and deep inlet make it ideal for live bait fishing, jigging, or casting plugs. With nearby parking, bait shops, and views of the open ocean, the jetty is a go-to for both serious anglers and casual fishermen looking to hook into something big right from shore.
