Both areas are prone to seaweed and the water is a little cold and rough (but that’s the Atlantic for you). I’m spoiled from mostly going to beaches on the Florida Gulf Coast and panhandle and nothing compares. Here’s the deal…Miami beaches in general are not my favorite. It’s more like a place where there’s not much to do after it gets dark.īoth areas are only about 15-20 minutes away from Miami International Airport. Key Biscayne is upscale, very family friendly, and very much not a party place. Sometimes called Miami’s “secret island,” Key Biscayne is just south of Miami Beach, but it’s accessed by a separate bridge from the mainland making it much more remote. Located at the southern end of Miami Beach (the barrier island off the coast of Miami), it’s an incredibly international scene famous for nightclubs, trendy restaurants, posh resorts, golden beaches, and people who want to be seen.Īnd then you have Key Biscayne. South Beach is Miami’s most famous neighborhood. BUT I’ve spent time in both areas and I think I can do a pretty good job of objectively describing each place so you can decide which one sounds best to you. I am not into the Miami party scene and since South Beach is ground zero for it, it’s not a place that I love spending a lot of time. I will preface this post with a little info…I am not a “South Beach person”. Key Biscayne and South Beach could not be more different so once I break down the basics for you and describe the general vibe of each, you’re going to know exactly where you want to stay. This is going to be the easiest choice you ever make. A lot of pros and cons to weigh about which is better for your personal circumstances and still it’s a tough choice because you’re looking at two good options. A lot of “this vs that” posts that I write on this blog have a lot of nuances.
