After visiting Key Biscayne ourselves, we have rounded up some of our favorite spots.

Visit
Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park at the tip of Key Biscayne is where you can get your fill of nature, along with some history. You can bike or walk around the parks trails while exploring the lighthouse – Cape Florida Light, the oldest standing structure in Greater Miami.

There is also Cape Florida beach that runs 1.25 miles along the coast. During summer, it is sea turtle season, so you will most likely spot some eggs on the shore.

Enjoy
The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Miami, offers an oasis to rejuvenate and refresh yourself. Their spa includes a sauna where you can go before or after your spa treatment. There is also an area where you can simply relax and enjoy some refreshments.
