About this Event
Get ready for a one-of-a-kind Weird Miami tour with Coral Morphologic!
This time, we’re taking the WEIRD MIAMI tour to the water. 🌊🐠
Join us for an exploration of Miami’s hidden histories, underwater wonders, and unexpected urban ecologies. From fossilized mangrove forests to a mysterious unbuilt island, from forgotten landmarks to the coral city camera site.
The tour will start on a boat and end on foot, tracing the edges of Miami’s past, present, and possible future. Be prepared to walk for about 30 minutes. We want everyone to feel comfortable on the walking tour—if you need any accommodations, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Spots are limited so get your tickets fast before we sell out!

Coral Morphologic was founded in 2007 by marine biologist Colin Foord and musician J.D. McKay in Miami as a multi-faceted platform for the development of symbiosis between humans and coral. Coral Morphologic's unique methodology blends science and art in a way that enamors popular culture with the beauty of coral while inspiring the next generation to restore the reefs and protect the planet.
Bas Fisher Invitational & Bridge Initiative lauched our Waterproof Miami series in 2020 with The Coral City Camera, an underwater camera streaming live from an urban reef in Miami, Florida. It is located along the shoreline at the east end of PortMiami in about 10’ (3m) of water. It was deployed by Coral Morphologic as a hybrid art-science research project produced with BFI & Bridge, and initially funded through grants awarded by a Knight Arts Challenge grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, and an Art Works grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
