Key Biscayne: Crandon Park to the lighthouse
The calm beach, the bike path through the park, and the oldest building in Miami at the end of the island.
Key Biscayne is the island across the Rickenbacker Causeway: two state and county parks with the best beaches near the city and almost no high-rises. Rent a bike at Crandon, ride the path south, and finish at the 1825 lighthouse in Bill Baggs with a swim.

- No shade on the path: hat, water, sunscreen.

Can you bike from Miami to Key Biscayne?
Yes, over the Rickenbacker Causeway on a separated path, about 8 km from Brickell to Crandon Park. Many people drive to Crandon and rent bikes there instead.
