Pelican Harbor Park, North Bay Village Fishing

5.4· Harbor· North Bay Village, FL

Pelican Harbor Park is a Miami-Dade County park and marina on the 79th Street Causeway, in the middle of Biscayne Bay near North Bay Village, with a boat ramp, fuel dock, restrooms and a fish cleaning area. County listings for the park mention fishing and a fishing pier, but its own marina page gives no fishing rules, so this is a modest light-tackle spot where you read the signs. Mangrove snapper, snook, jacks, seatrout and ladyfish are the likely catches around the docks and grass edges, and small live shrimp do most of the work. The park is open from sunrise to sunset, and the boat ramp is open around the clock. Watch for heavy boat and trailer traffic and summer lightning.
