Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park
Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park occupies the southern tip of Key Biscayne and centers on the Cape Florida Lighthouse, built in 1825 and the oldest standing structure in Miami-Dade County, giving the beach a genuine historical landmark most other Miami shorelines lack. The park's beach was named "America's Best Beach" by the Travel Channel in 2008 and has consistently ranked among Dr. Beach's annual top beach lists, recognition driven partly by its calm, protected waters and partly by the park's broader mix of hiking trails, picnic areas, and the historic lighthouse grounds surrounding it. Its position at the very southern end of the key, facing both the open Atlantic and the calmer waters near the Cape Florida Channel, gives visitors a choice between more active surf on one side and gentler, more swimmable conditions on the other, within the same park. For a Miami beaches list, Bill Baggs Cape Florida is the essential "history plus a genuinely great beach" entry — a nationally ranked shoreline anchored by Miami-Dade's oldest standing structure, offering both calm swimming water and a real sense of place.
VS
Haulover Beach Park
Haulover Beach Park, on a narrow barrier peninsula between the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay just north of Bal Harbour, is best known for its northern clothing-optional section, one of the few legally sanctioned nude beaches in the continental United States and a genuine local landmark in its own right. The park's southern, non-nude section is a fully developed county beach facility with a marina, a small-craft inlet popular for watching boats navigate the cut, and consistently good surf conditions that draw a dedicated local surfing community not found at Miami's calmer bayside beaches. Its position directly on the Haulover Inlet, the narrow channel connecting the ocean to Biscayne Bay, gives it a genuinely different character from the area's other beaches — more open water exposure, stronger currents in places, and a steady stream of boat traffic passing close to shore. For a Miami beaches list, Haulover is the essential "more than just sand" entry — a barrier-island beach known equally for its clothing-optional stretch, its surf break, and its inlet-side boat-watching, giving it a genuinely different identity than any other beach in Miami-Dade.
