The Key Biscayne condos is an island that lies south of Miami Beach and east of Miami. It and nearby Virginia Key, while named keys, are not geologically part of the Florida keys, but are barrier islands composed of sand moved down the coast from the north by coastal currents.[2] Visitors can reach Key Biscayne from the mainland by driving over the Rickenbacker Causeway, a roadway and series of bridges that span Biscayne Bay. The Key Biscayne (from the Spanish word cayo, for "island") is connected to Miami via the Rickenbacker Causeway, originally built in 1947. Because of its low elevation and direct exposure to the Atlantic Ocean, it is usually among the first Miami areas to be evacuated before an oncoming hurricane.
The Key Biscayne condos area is home to Crandon Park (Miami-Dade County) and Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, and is adjacent to Biscayne National Park, one of the Two national parks in Miami-Dade County.
Since 1985, a major professional tennis tournament for both men and women has been held annually in Key Biscayne at the Tennis Center in Crandon Park. Currently known as the NASDAQ-100 Open, the event was formerly the Lipton Tennis Championships from 1985 to 1999 and the Ericsson Open from 1999 to 2002.
