Stretching out from Miami is the barrier island of Key Biscayne
Key Biscayne is a barrier island that juts into the Atlantic Ocean, offering residents plenty of ocean views and natural beauty. Connected to Miami via the Rickenbacker Causeway, Key Biscayne has been inhabited since the 1500s, after being discovered by Juan Ponce de Leon. A lighthouse was constructed there in the 1820s, and a town followed soon after. By the early 1900s, wealthy industrialists started making homes and purchasing land, along with resorts and hotels springing up. It was a popular summer destination for President Richard Nixon, who had his “Winter White House” on Biscayne Bay. Today, Key Biscayne has more than 14,000 people and a mix of housing options for buyers. “I love Key Biscayne. This is the best place in the world for me,” says Giulietta Ulloa, the senior vice president and broker associate at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices EWM Realty. “It’s like a paradise island and it's very secure.”
The Cape Florida Lighthouse has stood on Key Biscayne since 1825.
Private pools and docks are common among Key Biscayne’s single-family homes.

State parks, golf and beaches
On the southern end of Key Biscayne is Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, which features multiple fishing spots and trails. The park is also home to the Cape Florida Lighthouse, which was rebuilt in 1846 after the Second Seminole War. On the northern edge of Key Biscayne sits Crandon Park. Originally a coconut plantation, it has become a prime spot for kayaking, sailing, and birdwatching. The park also has a tennis center with 27 courts and a 13,000-seat stadium that formerly hosted the Miami Open tennis tournament. Crandon Golf at Key Biscayne has been in the area since 1972 and features an 18-hole layout with artificial lakes and ocean views. The facility also has a driving range and practice area. Village Green Park, in the Village of Key Biscayne, has several soccer fields and walking paths in the island's center.
Beach locations surround the island, with some having public access and others only open to residents.
