Quiet...

The Lighthouse is located within the Park and is a very peaceful place not very crowded with a pretty decent beach in the heart of Key Biscayne... It’s only 15 mins away of Miami and it’s only USD per vehicle so if you are around,...More

Good views from the top

Well worth a quick visit. You are allowed up in small groups. Stairs are very narrow and steep. Not for the faint hearted at the top!

Hidden gem in Key Biscayne

It’s a hidden gem in Key Biscayne! I’ve never visited a lighthouse in its interior before. The place is very well preserved, staff is friendly and keen to explain everything. There are 105 steps and a great view when you get to the top.

Great location and view

We did not get to go to the top of the lighthouse as there was a wait (allow 10 at a time) but the view from around the lighthouse and the grounds are very well kept. It is about $8 to drive into the park.
