About Us

Historic Virginia Key Beach Park, located off the Rickenbacker Causeway, is just minutes away from the Miami’s downtown financial centers, top tourist destinations, sport facilities, retail, dining and renowned educational institutions.

A beautiful & exotic space with natural beauty for a perfect family ambiance.

Our History

The story begins in 1896. This was the year the City of Miami was founded with approximately one-third of the signatures of the city charter being black men (which was no accident considering their predominant role in the early building of the city). Read more.

Become A Volunteer

Volunteering is more than rewarding.

It doesn’t matter how much time you can spare, we would love to hear from any budding volunteers.

I had an awesome time donating time to the beach clean up. We learnt so much while helping the natural flora & fauna.I’ll definitely do it again.
With a local festival I volunteered with car parking in exchange for event entry tickets. A great exchange of energy!! I’d recommend giving back whenever possible.

From helping to maintain footpaths in the outstanding natural beauty of Historic Virginia Key Beach Park to volunteering with children and young people, there’s something for everyone, contact us to find out how you can volunteer.
