About Key Biscayne

Key Biscayne is an incorporated village on a barrier island in Miami-Dade County. Crandon Park occupies the northern portion of the island, while Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park lies to the south. Between them is the residential village, where homes, condominium buildings, restaurants, shops and recreational facilities are concentrated along and around Crandon Boulevard.

Outdoor recreation is part of everyday life here. Residents have access to Village Green, neighborhood parks, beaches, athletic programs and the Village of Key Biscayne Community Center. Crandon Park also offers golf, tennis, marina facilities and other recreational options.

History of Key Biscayne

Key Biscayne has a history shaped by Indigenous settlement, maritime activity, agriculture and the development of Miami-Dade County. During the early twentieth century, part of the island was operated as a large coconut plantation by the Matheson family. Land later transferred to the county became part of Crandon Park.

The completion of the Rickenbacker Causeway in 1947 created a direct road connection between the island and mainland Miami. Crandon Park opened to the public during the same period, and residential development expanded in the following decades. The Village of Key Biscayne now combines its established residential streets with parks, beaches and convenient access to central Miami.
