Why Key Biscayne
Why Key Biscayne Is Perfect for Party Boat
A party boat from Key Biscayne offers a different flavor than the high-energy Haulover Sandbar scene.

Know Before You Go
Your Guide to Key Biscayne
A tranquil island escape minutes from Miami
About the Area
Key Biscayne is a barrier island south of Miami Beach, connected by the Rickenbacker Causeway. It feels worlds apart from the mainland — lush parks, quiet beaches, and some of the clearest water in Miami-Dade County. This is where locals go to escape the city without leaving it.
On the Water
A nature-focused waterfront surrounded by state parks and marine preserves. Crandon Park and Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park bookend the island. The water here is shallower and calmer than anywhere else in the metro area.
Exceptionally calm, shallow waters protected by the barrier island. Visibility is often the best in Miami-Dade, making this prime territory for snorkeling and swimming. Bear Cut between Key Biscayne and Virginia Key has gentle currents.
Stiltsville is 10 minutes by boat. Biscayne National Park is 15-20 minutes south. The sandbar near Nixon Beach is 5 minutes. Downtown Miami skyline is visible from the bay.
Getting There
Key Biscayne is reached via the Rickenbacker Causeway from Brickell ($2.25 toll). Parking is available at marinas and parks. Rideshare from downtown Miami takes 15-20 minutes.
