Cape Florida Beach

The 1.25-mile Atlantic beach reached from Areas A, B, and C. Navigate to the exact pin rather than the general Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park marker.

Entry is $8 per vehicle for two-eight people, $4 for a single occupant or motorcycle, and $2 for pedestrians or cyclists. Arrive early on weekends and holidays.

Beach access follows park hours, 8 a.m. to sundown, but capacity, weather, and renovation closures can restrict specific accesses.

Restrooms and showers serve beach and picnic areas, but Restroom 2 is currently closed for renovation. Confirm the closest open facility at entry.

Included with park entry; chair and umbrella rentals cost extra.

Developed areas include accessible parking, paths, facilities, and beach access, but lighthouse-tower stairs, sand, and changing renovation closures require destination-specific planning.

Leashed pets are allowed in designated outdoor areas but not on the beach, playgrounds, lighthouse, cafes, or other posted facilities.

The 1.25-mile Atlantic beach reached from Areas A, B, and C. The beach, lighthouse grounds, bikes, picnics, and harbor make a full family day. Tower tours involve stairs and fixed times; capacity closures make a backup plan essential.

There are no lifeguards, so swimming is at your own risk. Use the marked float area, watch winter man-of-war warnings, and note that beach access 3 is listed closed for renovation.

Public transit is limited at the south end of Key Biscayne. Cycling is possible, but heat and causeway distance are significant; rideshare passengers still cannot enter during a capacity closure.
