Great place to see the lighthouse and chill for a bit...must wear a mask during these times and the lighthouse is closed to go up but otherwise very cool

Beautiful park. Need to be careful or prepared rather for potential mosquitoes. we were fortunate enough to be there and not have to really deal with them but I do know it is something that you need to be prepared for

Love this park, especially the beach, the water is really calm (at least every time Ive been there) and the sand is so pretty.

We love this park/beach. I almost hate to post about it because we love it that much. We love there are woods and on the other side? The most glorious beach and gorgeous water. We love to picnic there and then go down to swim. They have some grills there and pavilions if you prefer (I think you have to rent if you really want to secure). There are bike rentals and if you stake a claim on the beach chairs and an umbrella it was only 25 bucks when we were there last Sunday (Aug 23rd 2020). Love it. One of my fave spots. Sadly my beach was all video but heres one of a raccoon that strayed our way.

This is an amazing place to take a hike or make a ride...and the lighthouse and access to the beach are amazing. Take a time, enjoy the walk :)

Great beach park....plenty of parking. Saw a few iguanas...be mindful of sea turtle habitats. Soft sand very therepudic relaxing beach walk

Its a beautiful lighthouse with nice beach and park for family pic nic, biking and fishing. Highly recommend this Park

A beautiful place to go with family, beautiful beach, good food and a incredible place to know a little bit more about the history of the lighthouse

My family has been visiting Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park for over 50 years since we came to live to Florida from Cuba. I still have so many memories as a little girl having a family BBQ with friends and running up and down the beach. I’ve been able to enjoy this beach growing up and with new generations of children. I highly recommend this lovely slice of paradise.Pro tip: They have plenty of BBQ grills but on the weekends they quickly fill up so come early.

I can visit this place every weekend.One of the best parks to visit in miami, the cleanliness is superb, the staff is polite, there is ample amount of parking, table-chairs, grills. We had an amazing time, the bike trails different from other parks.There is an entry fee of $8 per vehicle which is negligible if you compare the services they are offering, and lastly the washrooms are clean as well.

Nice park with awesome scenic views, trails, bbq grills, Picnic areas with shelters, lighthouse, restaurant, marina with overnight docking, fishing piers, beaches

They put on a free outdoor Halloween movie in the harbor. It was a beautiful night and a great time. They had it all arranged for socially distancing and most were wearing masks. Good job!

Seaweed wasnt raked off the beach as most places are, but the rest of the parking & picnic areas were clean & well maintained.

Lovely park. Has a great trail under the tree canopy to keep you out of the sun. There is also a trail that runs parallel to the seawall that has no protection from the sun. This park offers great views of Stiltsville and the light house. Definitely worth a visit in the cooler months!

I love ️ this park. So much to do. If you don’t want to pay for parking There’s a nice neighborhood right down the street on the right. It’s a long walk to get to the water from the car so make sure you bring some water bug spray and a hat. They have two places you can get grub here. One please I will give you ice water for free the other place you paid two dollars. There’s a lot of nature wildlife and plants here. there’s a nice neighborhood right down the street on the right.

There’s two to three nature trails but I love to just do the circle so I’m basically doing the whole park. If you wanna go up in to the lighthouse I would definitely call because they do close early. ️

I loved this place because there was many things to do and it’s all within walking distance. There’s a beach, a lighthouse, & a fishing area along with Cabanas to sit with family or friends. Really nice place to relax or create adventure with kids.

I definitely recommend it! One of my favorite outdoor places around. Beautiful and nice spot for everyone. You can bike around or spend the day there. With parking, restaurant, trails, beach, restrooms, playgrounds, fishing area and lots of different corners with amazing views to have fun with friends and family or enjoy the nature quietly by yourself. My favorite part is the lighthouse. From outside it might not look too high but give it a try... you may even get a little tired with the spiral stairs but you will be surprised by what you can see from up there. It is a tiny area to share with other visitors but enough to be inspired by the magnitude of Mother Nature. 5 stars!

Love this park. There’s a little bit of something for everyone here. Tons of great memories. Beaches are clean too, much nicer than south beach

Cool lil walkway area to the lighthouse.A ton of Iguanas and lizards everywhere, way cool!

Wonderful park, great location. But main beach on the south end was closed the day we went due to keeping the crowds down. Make sure to go early. Also, if kayaking, be careful on the Bay side. Currents, boats, and a long seawall can make it a bit tough on novices.

It’s a beautiful beach, quiet and with nice people. The lighthouse it’s an amazing experience, you have an outstanding view. Great for doing water sports. I recommend it. Only note that you’ll need to pay for parking but it’s cheap and worth it, if I recall correctly it’s only 7 dollars for the whole day. You also have an ice cream truck so it’s nice to get something refreshing during the day. And you can rent bikes if you don’t have your own to be able to bike around the park that is close by.

The beach here is absolutely amazing. No waves at all when I went. The water is clear and blue. Some brown seaweed. Recommend going to the lighthouse the view from there is beautiful. $8 per car to enter. There are tables and BBQ grills. There are raccoons so beware. Overall lovely place.

Awsome place to go fishing with thr kids. We love it and we also feel very safe.

Our favorite park and the best / cleanest beach in Miami Dade County!We have loved Bill Baggs for years now! Every time we want to go to the beach we come here! Today was no different and we enjoyed the trails and the docks along with the sand.Especially if you come on a week day you can really enjoy everything this park has to offer. During the summer you can go in the waters and during the winter you can enjoy the trails and restaurants!The price has gone up in the past years (now $8 for a car with 2-8 people) but its well worth it. This park is clean and the staff are friendly!

Just beautiful and highly recommended. Untouched nature at its best. Visit anytime before a thunderstorm and you will be speechless like me. Fortunate to visit this hidden gem

An absolutely wonderful experience for the whole family. This is a fantastic park! We made an entire day of trip to Cape Florida. We spent a few good hours in the pristine beaches of the park. Then we trek the several nature trails. Then we had lunch at the grill in No Name Harbour. After lunch we the beach again, at the southernmost point, as to be near the Lighthouse. The we explored the historic lighthouse and museum. As the day wined down, we made our way to the southwest pier to watch a breathtaking sunset, and some ice cream. It was an awesome day, and the drive back across the bay was also a sight to behold, as the Magic City began to light up for the night .

Had a wonderful time walking by the ocean, seeing the light house and enjoying the day with my wife. Will be going again, just have to watch out for all of the bike riders, they are everywhere.

I give the lighthouse four stars because its a beautiful lighthouse. But just like every other Florida Lighthouse, the tourist trap thing has ruined this one as well for any chance of photographers to capture any great shots of it. We took two days to travel down south and a night in a hotel just to see and photograph this lighthouse. Almost impossible. They have two staff members just hanging out outside the entrance to the lighthouse door, one being a very large dude (a lot of work to remove from your photos) so if youre looking to travel for photography purposes of this Lighthouse.. Be warned. I really dont understand why the state of Florida has to ruin this for us. New England and other areas just dont do this. Much better to photograph these beautiful structures.

Bill Baggs is a great location for single or group bike rentals. Paved path that extends along the coast. If you look right off the wall along the coast shore, youll see all kinds of tropical fish swimming along. Theres a well maintained lighthouse where you can climb up for a fee. Also noticed many raccoons wondering around. DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS PLEASE..

Really nice beach park at the south point of Key Biscayne! Plenty of parking space, several beach access trails, white sand beach, turquoise water and a great century old lighthouse.Tips:1. Take fresh water to rinse off the sand as there arent showers on all of the beach access trails. There is in the one near the Lighthouse restaurant.2. The farther away from the Lighthouse the better as there is less people and you have great views of Miami.3. There are sunchairs and umbrellas available for rental, but you can take your own as well.

This is such a great national park. Theres trails for biking and walking. The beaches are my favorite part.

Great picture locations. Just drive to the lighthouse parking lot and walk around, youll find tons of great picturesque locations!

I totally love this place. In my opinion, there is more fun thing to do than another beach in Miami. It’s easy to find a parking spot. You will not only just go to the water and chill. You will be able to take a light house tour or just walk up to the top of lighthouse to see the view. You will see the whole beach and downtown Miami which is very very cool. Also they have a little old house to see. It was kinda museum. I had a really great time there. I definitely recommend you guys to try it. I paid for $8 per vehicle. It worth it!!

This park is really nice and well maintained (at least when we went there were no overflowing trash cans, etc.). This time we went to see the lighthouse because its only open during certain hours. If you look on their website, it doesnt specify the hours that the lighthouse is open to go up. And good luck with getting someone to answer the phone when you call... But, apparently its open Thursday-Monday from 9 am-4 pm with guided tours at 10 am and 1 pm. If you like history, youll enjoy this and there are spectacular views from the top. The beaches are also nice and they do have restroom facilities here as well. Totally worth it for a day outing.

Nice clean beach. Easy access and fun quad bikes.

Nice beach, but full of algea and close really early.

This state park/beach is by far my most favorite beach, trails, scenery all there for you to enjoy!Never had any problems with the friendly staff/rangers or visitors.Every so often you can even catch a glimpse of a manatee swimming by the sea wall where ( to my disdain) people usually are fishing, leaves me really concerned that the park allows fishing since you have those poor helpless manatees swimming there that can get entangled and cut up on the fishing lines not to mention the high speed boaters with no regards to the signs.Since going to the park for many years I have seen the cuts from the boat propellers on a few manatees, it’s so sad to see these beautiful creatures endure such torture and disregard at the hands of fellow humans.

Amazing location saw a guy pull a legal red snapper of the dock! Awesome vibes and people. Great for fishing

My wife and I enjoyed this beach more than any other beach that we visited while on our trip to Florida. The waters are crystal clear! And the beach is very clean and well taken care of. The facilities are awesome as well! If youre in Miami this is definitely worth the short drive!

Nice state park. When I go back I am going to climb the lighthouse. Nice beach area to swim at. Plenty of areas to have a picnic while enjoying the outdoors. Easy park for boaters to access.

Park is nice with the exception of the mosquitos in the bathrooms. My wife was bitten real bad while changing into her bathing suit, therefore we left the park without checking out the lighthouse and surrounding beach. Horrible experience ... Visitor be aware of the mosquito infestation in the bathrooms by the lighthouse.

Great park, despite the Covid closures. It has a new bike walk surrounding the entire state. Great new liquor bar to watch the sunset.

Only giving 4 out of 5 because lighthouse is closed due to covid. Really nice park, trails and beaches.

Great park for the family. Clean facilities, great white sand beach and lots of history to explore. Great for kids.

Great beach park. Needs a good paddleboard rental company. Had to go to another island and found a great spot. They should have that here. Lighthouse is beautiful beach and ocean are right there. Theres a restaurant in the park that pretty good.

This is a really beautiful park with lots to do including the beach, bike rentals, lighthouse tours, and fishing. The lighthouse tours and/or climbing without the tour is included in your admission fee. The views from the top are well worth the climb. The beach was clean, although pretty crowded but the water was crystal clear and everyone on the beach was very friendly. I also enjoyed lunch at the lighthouse cafe which was made fresh and reasonably priced.

A beautiful place indeed, lots of riff Raff and people playing loud obnoxious Spanish music standing 5 ft away from their speakers. Very disruptive to other guests, and clearly these people are grandstanding. But for these disruptions its a great place to visit

The only beach I will go to currently. If you want to be near people, go towards the lighthouse, away from people, then away from the lighthouse. No one will really bother you here. The staff is friendly as well. They seem to enjoy their jobs. This is my forever beach spot... 10/10

This park has the best of everything: nature trails, wildlife, beaches, swimming, picnicking, and more all in a beautiful nature conservation area. The lighthouse cafe was a nice treat and we appreciated that the park and amenities were well kept!

Inexpensive and wonderful way to spend the day. Water is always peaceful, wildlife plentiful. A great place to just walk into the water and snorkel around.

Amazing place! The water is so perfect and its a great place to go snorkeling. The food was wonderful and I loved looking out at the ocean while we ate.

When sailing to Key Biscayne we always stop at No Name Harbor. The anchorage is good and many times you can see dolphins who will visit the harbor. Because this is a popular spot, I recommend that you get there early in the day rather than later.

A perfect Florida Park. Great to walk, bike ride, or simply rest by the ocean. You can rent bikes, do barbecue, fish, and share a bench or stay under covered space. There are public bathrooms and a beautiful light house that you can climb to the top, free! The views are spectacular!

“Beach.. Sun.. White sand...all near to lighthouse. What a postcard scene.”Its in Key Biscayne area, 20-25 miles from Miami. $8 is the fee for entering in the island. There are 2 islands near to Miami, Virginia key and Key Biscayne.White sand... Calm and peace... Soothing waves... less crowd- scenic beauty...Palm trees at the beach making it more beautiful. Perfect picture scene.Water is clear and looks greenish under sunlight making it desirable. asking you to come, have fun in the water...Shower facility is there at the beach and its clean.This is not very popular or big- wide beach like other Miami beach..but it has its own charm... Less crowded... Nearby grilling machine... Come with your stuff. Grill meats... Do fishing... Its all picnic and all in and around the beach...Shore area is small but enough to have fun.Very clean… Water is clearTake pic having a lighthouse in the background.

Fantastic location. Friendly park staff. The $8 per vehicle admission was very fair. Clean beach. Clean bathrooms. Really enjoyed the lighthouse and staff guy Bill was quite nice and took some pics for us.

Great state park experience! Friendly staff, well maintained grounds, wildlife abound. Worth the trip, be sure to take time to explore, bring food and snacks, and dont let the racoons take em from you.

Heres my advice...DO NOT GO THERE! You wouldnt like the crystal clear water, you would not enjoy the soft sand, you will not like the beautiful view, you definitely will not enjoy the clean beach and please dont go there. LOL!

This beautiful state park, tucked away at the tip of Key Biscayne, is a Florida gem. It feels a world away from the hustle and bustle of Miami. Its only $8 entry and we stayed there several hours. Theres a beach, walking trails, fishing areas and docks, and a refurbished lighthouse and keepers home. The beach is quiet and lightly visited during the week. Enjoy!

One of our favs to take our visitors. Walking trails, fishing, biking, and picnicking.Clean bathrooms. No fencing around water. Tons of wild life.

The beach was nice sand and a little ways out there are sea grasses with fish to snorkel and see. The lighthouse is beautiful and the park is nice and clean. There are many iguanas and raccoons you will see. The sea wall was nice to walk along as well as the board walks over the dunes.

Great state park to visit, especially if in the area. Good place to visit with friends, family, coworkers or other, has a range of activities available from fishing to lounging on the beach. Has nice historical landmarks and value like the lighthouse, and nearby cabins/houses. Beach is far-stretching, relatively clean thanks to beach clean ups, nice and sandy, and has a great amount of beach vegetation for that natural beach view. If beaches arent your thing, theres a great fishing area nearby (where local fishermen like to catch all sorts of things, like barracudas and sharks), where you can watch the waves crash against the rocks and baby crabs scurry, or set up under a pavilion, and have a nice BBQ with friends and family.Overall great place to visit and relax, even if you are a Florida native/resident, and have been to all the local beaches.

My family and I had an amazing day here! The water was calm so the kids were splashing away. The lighthouse is beautiful it was the first time my kids have seen an actual light house so they were excited. We WILL be back to visit when in florida again no doubt. One of my favorite things was a sign on the drive in it read Take nothing but memories, leave nothing but footprints. It definitely was a place for memories!

Everytime I come I always find something different to enjoy. The beach is great but it gets packed during summer so make sure to get there early. The light house area is awesome. Very historic and beautiful. You can even walk all the way to the top! Around the light house are some historic fun facts and a replica of the keepers quarters. Many people use this area for wedding or engagement photos including myself. This park also has a restaurant which I have not visited yet and a whole bunch of bike trails and walking paths. You can bring your dog to enjoy those areas with you but not the beach which is fine by me. This is definitely one of Miamis hidden treasures!

Really a nice park with beautiful beach access. Also hiking and biking trails throughout the park. Unfortunately lighthouse was closed.

Absolutely fantastic this is a true hidden gem. We will most definitely return. There’s a lovely beach for swimming and sunbathing, there’s a park to have a BBQ or picnic. You can rent bicycles. You can do hiking and fishing. Family friendly, clean not to crowded. It’s $8 for a vehicle of 4.

Nice park, however wish I would have known more beforehand!! It is $8 a car to get in. You can fish and swim, there is the light house and historical house next to it available for viewing. There were chairs and umbrellas available for rental on the beach, $20. You are able to go up into the light house, 42 or taller and they allow only 10 people up at a time. There is roughly 109 steps up into the tower. There is wildlife throughout the park, that doesnt seem too shy so be aware.

Great place to go relax pass the time, for me its the fishing there...

This is a beautiful park in Kay Biscayne where you can spend the day at the Beach, you can do hiking, rent a bicycle, visit the light house and there is also a restaurant.It is a big place to spend the day with family or friends, they are a lot of places to take great pictures.If you like to take photos, you need to visit this place.You just have to pay $ 8.00 us per vehicle (up to 6 or 8 persons per car) to enter to the park.

Good place. Please visit this silent non chaotic beach in Miami

So sad bikes have to pay 2 dollars to go around the park besides that everything is great and clean. Great area for go fishing

Great place to visit . Lovely beach and lighthouse area . Catch a great sunset on the far tip of the Key .

Best park and love the trails and bike paths ..love boater grill and the Cleat . Super cool

Gorgeous year-round. Love coming to the beach here because it has shaded areas to go to for a picnic or when the sun is too intense. Only bad thing (albeit not the places fault) is the people that litter and do not seen to give a damn, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THEM?

A great place to relax with family or friends. The fare is $ 8.Here I really like the sand - it is small as in the Maldives. Also on this territory you can climb the lighthouse, from it an incredible view of the ocean. In another part of the island there is a picnic area and with beautiful views flooded. It is so quiet and calm, I want to come back here again and again. You can rent bicycles and rickshaws at great prices.

Run for your life!No social distancing at all!!!We can all share certain spaces... As long as the social distancing is in place an respected!

Lovely beach, close to Miami but not nearly as packed. Make sure you check out the lighthouse and the cafe right off the beach. Oh, and the wildlife is very friendly!

Its really a gorgeous place. When we have been there in mid November not many people were there. It was everything youd expect from Florida. Make sure to do a stop through the city of Key Biscayne and take a look at these beautiful mansions.

Very nice beach, one restaurant, the lighthouse and several beach entrances with restrooms.

Loved it! Beautiful Miami views, free parking, trails, park (raccoons walking!!), beach, lighthouse.. The place to make some great pictures!!

I love to watch the sunset from here. And if you get to spend the day at the beach here, all the better! Park closes at 7:30 during the summer so plenty of time to enjoy it here. Nice break from a days work!

Very much enjoyed my visit here. Plenty of activities on land and water. Some nice sightseeing too. Great location.

I love this park but it has become such a hit and miss now. Closing hours are quite random. Was there Sunday the 16th and it was closed by 5. (Lady at the booth was quite unpleasant this time around too)

Well worth the $8 bucks just enjoy the beach sounds of the ocean the waves when they start to come in a little harder so peaceful you wouldnt want to leave. Bring the kids they will enjoy the sand and tire themselves out and you will have a peaceful evening as well if you can stay up lol. P.S. your not supposed to feed the raccoons so I gave him some water he was happy and went on his way very cool he was so friendly.

You can see the city from the area where you are allowed to bike and fish. At the beach there is a beautiful lighthouse, which looks nice against the sunset.

Awesome place. Cant wait to go back.

No waves. Good beachbto be with family and kids. No sun shade unless you rent an umbrella.

This is the best place to spend the whole day. Beutiful beach, nice restaurants, fishing dock, a lot of trails, bike and canoe rental available. Loved it! Would deffinetely come back!

Closes at visitor capacity but they dont count cars exiting the park, explain your logic, ill wait...

Like a Natural pool!! Beautiful place! Warm water! And..the best: Dolphings in the area!!!

One of the hidden gems I would say. Very beautiful, calm and peaceful beach. Very less crowded. Low or no tide. Beautiful towerhouse. Enjoy sunrise/sunset here. Clean beach and water. Perfect spot to enjoy sun, sand and beach.

Planto reach an hour before 4:30 pm asthe entrance to the lighthouse ends at 5.it has got a pretty cool view across the beach.well maintained beach.

Great park, beautiful lighthouse and nature trails. Beach was great and not to crowded.

Absolutely loved being here for sunset. Its a peaceful retreat from the fast-paced city life. It has great views of the ocean and you can fish here. We saw some crabs and exotic fish in the rocks as well. Its a bit of drive from the city but worth it.

Nice clean park to hang out with friends and family. I love the view from the lighthouse.

I love this place for many reasons. It’s been a place I’ve always gone to, decades more to come. You can bike, fish, get on the beach, be at peace and away from the city. Great to grill on too.

This is a beautiful State Park, this is great for an all-day activity. The fishing locations look clean and people are successful. The bike trails have plant of space. We plan to explore the park more hopefully with a better review.

One of the best state parks in South Florida ,beautiful beaches, nice views, great place for outdoor,BBQ, fishing, hiking, cycling and more!!!!

Great place. Lots of history and was so beautiful very well set up state park. And all the rangers were all so nice and helpful.

Gorgeous. We rented bikes from a shop before entering the park. $2 entrance fee per bike. Use the envelope in the box. The area where they boathouse is took our breath away. Secluded, path along the water for biking/walking. Saw a cute couple setting up a charturie board and wine to watch the sunset together over the water.️ Definitely the place for a date.

Clean beach with bluish green waters and light sand, less crowded and has a beautiful lighthouse that offers incredible view of the beach. Please note that there is no network coverage inside.
