Be transported back to the heyday of the old Virginia Key Beach when it was the preeminent gathering place for local and out-of-town segregated classes who were relegated to seek recreation and respite time in ‘separate but equal’ facilities. Hear video reminiscences of childhood memories filled with enchantment, history in-the-making and the strong ties of family and community. See images of the early mode of transport to the island, check out swimwear styles from bygone eras and research long-lost bungalows and cabanas which once graced the property’s shoreline. View updated galleries of recent socials, fundraisers and public festivals sponsored by Virginia Key Beach Park Trust.
