The Young Israel of Bal Harbour was founded in 1999, with Rabbi Moshe Gruenstein as the spiritual leader since 2001. The synagogue provides daily prayer services, as well as classes during the week, and youth groups on Shabbos. The synagogue is in a community that is enclosed by an eruv, and is served by a chevra kadisha (305-287-2663), and there is a mikvah in a nearby synagogue. There are many kosher stores and restaurants in the area, and there are Jewish schools nearby, and other Orthodox synagogues in the area. The Young Israel of Bal Harbour serves the communities of Surfside, Bal Harbour, and Bay Harbor Islands (which are all contained within the eruv).
