About
Key Biscayne sits on a barrier island reached from the mainland by the Rickenbacker Causeway, with Crandon Park and Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park anchoring its northern and southern tips. The island's building code caps height well below mainland Miami, giving it a compact, low-rise character, and a county-run tennis center and marina serve residents alongside the state park's historic lighthouse.
