The agency said in a news release sent Friday that the airplane went down east of Bay Harbor Island while traveling from Nassau, Bahamas to Opa-locka, Florida.
Rescue crews hoisted a man into a helicopter and took him to shore.
Video footage showed the plane upside down in the water.
The Coast Guard said the Miami-Dade police and fire departments and a commercial salvage crew assisted in the rescue.
