Convoy Point is home to Biscayne National Park’s Dante Fascell Visitor Center, and this is the only mainland presence that the park has. Visitors are welcome to have a bite to eat at any of the dozen or so picnic tables spread out over the grounds. All tables are taken on a first come, first served basis.

A few of the tables are located under two pavilions, both of which are situated on concrete floors. There are two grills at each pavilion.

The other picnic tables are located under shade trees on the grounds surrounding the Visitor Center building, near the kayak launch area (a few grills are located here as well), and along the Jetty Trail, a short trail that follows the mangrove-lined shore that leads out to the end of a jetty.
