Visiting Biscayne National Park by boat from the Coconut Grove neighborhood

I’m still surprised that we have 3 national parks within an hour of home (Everglades, Biscayne, and Dry Tortugas). Biscayne is all water so you basically can only visit by boat or other water activity but THIS rec is about not having to drive to the park entrance in Homestead and instead getting a boat ride there from Miami itself. Boat tours are 3ish hours - we did it with a 3 year old and all was great!
