Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Recreation Area

Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Recreation Area review

Occupying the southern tip of Key Biscayne, this park's wide beaches regularly make the national top ten lists. But this is more than just a pretty place to catch some rays: there's history, wildlife and lots of activities. You can tour the Cape Florida Lighthouse, the oldest building in south Florida; explore native wildlife planted in the aftermath of 1992's Hurricane Andrew; and try your hand at shoreline fishing, ocean kayaking, windsurfing, cycling and in-line skating. Covered pavilions are available for picnics, and the Lighthouse Café offers good cuisine.
