You may need to cross the Intracoastal Waterway on one of the many bridges depending on where you stay. Enjoy the view if you happen to be on the road when the bridge is up.

These are the quietest beaches in Miami to explore and to relax:

Key Biscayne.

You will definitely find some of the best beaches in Miami on Key Biscayne. The best way to enjoy a day at the beach is by finding your own spot and getting lost watching the water.
