Key Biscayne, Florida, a tropical island paradise just six miles off the coast of Miami, Florida, is a world-class resort community and premier vacation destination. At the point where I95 turns into US1 and continues all the way south to Key West, is the last exit that will take the traveler across the Rickenbacker Causeway, over Virginia Key, past the Miami Seaquarium (the home of the original "Flipper"), all the way to the idyllic island of Key Biscayne.
With assessed property values of well over $2 billion, Key Biscayne ranks #134 in Worth Magazine's “250 Richest U.S. Towns - 2001”, with a median home price of $644,975. Standard and Poors gives Key Biscayne a Grade A.
This unique barrier island lies just across Biscayne Bay from Coral Gables and only 18 miles (or a brief 30 minute drive) from Miami International Airport. Both Miami International Airport, the busy Port of Miami, and the action-packed nightlife of Miami Beach are only a 15 minute drive from Key Biscayne.
The island itself is seven miles long and two miles wide. Incorporated as a Village in 1991, the Village of Key Biscayne covers 1.25 square miles bordered by Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park to the south and Crandon Park to the north.
Key Biscayne is home to Crandon Park and beaches, some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Cape Florida is ranked #9 among America's Best Beaches 2001.
Lie back in a hammock and listen to the rustle of palm fronds in the ocean breeze, stroll along the sandy shore of the Atlantic, charter a deep-sea fishing boat, ride a jet ski, or simply relax with a good book on the white sand beaches under the shade of a chickee hut on an island paradise where the sun shines all year long...
Key Biscayne offers a wide variety of outdoor recreational activities including bicycling, tennis, golf, fishing, kite boarding, windsurfing, sailing and waterbikes. In addition, the unsurpassed safety of this island paradise and the people of the community, make Key Biscayne not only a popular vacation destination, but one of the best and most beautiful places to live in the world!
Once you visit our island paradise, we believe you too will understand why those of us fortunate enough to call this home count ourselves among the most blessed!
