The Southern-most barrier island of the U.S., Key Biscayne is a seven mile stretch of paradise just east of the Miami mainland and south of Miami Beach. Largely undeveloped until 1947, when the Rickenbacker Causeway was built to connect the island to Miami, Key Biscayne is now easily accessible, yet it maintains a quiet ease that distinguishes it from its louder neighboring communities with its beautiful nature preserves, shopping villages, pristine beaches and rich history.
The Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne is the only luxury hotel on the island and lies down the street from Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, Crandon Golf Course, Crandon Park (home of the renowned Sony-Ericsson Tennis Tournament) and Crandon Marina. Other favorite Miami attractions, including Miami Metro Zoo, Jungle Island, Miami Museum of Science & Planetarium, and the renowned South Beach, are just a short drive away.
