Virginia Key Beach

Removed from Unnamed collection

Virginia Key Beach - North is nestled at 3701 Rickenbacker Causeway in Key Biscayne. This historic gem is easy to spot, thanks to a large wooden sign just past the Rickenbacker Causeway, directly across from the Miami Seaquarium. Once the quirky hangout of Miami's eclectic locals, the area was home to the legendary Jimbo's. Though it has since closed, the spirit of this former movie set lives on in the stories shared by its visitors.

For those with a thirst for adventure, the beach offers windsurfing and ultralight seaplane rentals. Picture yourself gliding over the waves or soaring above the coastline, with the sun on your face and wind in your hair. The views here are nothing short of breathtaking: Brickell Avenue and the downtown Miami skyline provide a stunning backdrop.

But there's more to this spot than just its activities. Virginia Key Beach has a rich history, once serving as a designated beach for African Americans during the segregation era. This historical significance adds depth to its natural beauty, making it a must-visit for anyone interested in Miami's cultural tapestry. Whether you're a history buff or just looking for a unique beach experience, Virginia Key Beach - North offers a little something for everyone.
