The community of Key Biscayne, Florida is located just six miles from the coast of Miami, Florida. While the island is just a 15 minute drive from Miami, Key Biscayne maintains many natural tropical wonders, a rich history, and high-end real estate.

According to Key Biscayne history, the island has been a highly sought after piece of land for centuries. Early Native Americans, the Tequestas, used the island to harvest sea creatures, other wildlife, and the abundant plant life. Juan Ponce de Leon claimed the island in 1513 on behalf of the Spanish king, naming it Santa Marta before continuing on his journey and leaving the island behind. Later, Spanish ships carrying riches would crash into the reef. Treasure seekers still search for the riches that were lost in the wrecks. In 1825, the Cape Florida lighthouse was built, and the town was planned around the lighthouse in 1839. Later, the land would be purchased by planters establishing a massive coconut plantation in the early 20th century. In recent decades, this rich Key Biscayne history has only contributed to the island's charm.
