Haulover treats this yacht to some waves. #hauloverinlet #boatlife #haulover The man made inlet’s full name is Baker’s Haulover Inlet, likely named after Gardiner Baker who at this point on the beach in the early 1800’s would haul his boats over the shallow channel from the ocean to the northern end of Biscayne Bay. Haulover Inlet is located in Miami, Florida, USA at the northern end of Miami Beach, between the towns of Bal Harbor and Sunny Isles. On the north side of the inlet is Haulover Beach Park and on the northern end of that is the famous Haulover Nude Beach. Directly to the west of the inlet is the world famous Haulover Sand Bar where many of the boats are going from and too on busy weekends. There is a lot of boat traffic in Miami and Haulover Inlet, there are lots of places to go. Many boats exit the inlet to head to the fishing grounds off the coast. Some boats will cross over to the Bahamas to fish and play. Some boats will head north to Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach for day trips and some boats will head south to Miami and the Florida Keys. There is also a passage north and south called the Intracoastal. It is a protected waterway that is used when conditions on the Atlantic Ocean won’t allow for a safe and comfortable passage to destinations north and south.
