Comprised of two compact and balmy kidney-shaped islets, the neighborhood of Bay Harbor Islands is a sun-soaked town boasting luxurious waterfront properties and a central location that's an easy drive from abundant attractions, beaches, and schools that best fit your growing family.

Lying east of North Miami, west of Bal Harbor/Surfside, and north of the archipelago of small islands that encloses Biscayne Bay, Bay Harbor Islands covers less than half a square mile, separated from the Miami mainland by a causeway. Its two islands are better known as Broadview and Bay Harbor, the western and eastern islands, respectively.

In many ways, most locals and tourists will agree that Bay Harbor Islands, despite its quaint size, offers the best of both worlds, with the town itself removed from the hustle and bustle of nearby metro Miami, yet the city's bests are within a short distance.

Yes, even the most prestigious schools are an easy commute!

No wonder this tiny residential enclave is a highly-desirable place to live, work and relax!

Here's a list of schools in and around the Bay Harbor Islands.
