Embark on an easy hike through the Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park loop, a pleasant 4.2 miles (6.7 km) route with a minimal elevation gain of just 3 feet (1 metres). You can expect to complete this scenic journey in about 1 hour and 40 minutes. As you explore, you will wind through lush mangrove forests and maritime hammocks, eventually reaching the historic Cape Florida Lighthouse, a prominent landmark offering expansive views of the Atlantic Ocean.
This accessible trail is located just 15 minutes from downtown Miami, making it a convenient escape. The park is well-maintained and provides amenities such as picnic areas and restrooms for your comfort. Remember that there is an entrance fee to access the park, so plan for this when you organize your visit.
Beyond the natural beauty, the route offers glimpses of Stiltsville, a unique collection of houses built on stilts in Biscayne Bay. The Cape Florida Lighthouse itself holds historical significance as the oldest standing structure in Miami-Dade County. Keep an eye out for diverse wildlife as you enjoy the pristine sandy beaches along the way.
