  • Virginia Key Beach County Park
    South Florida Geological Site Guide series Department of Earth Sciences Florida International University, University Park, SW 8th Street & 107 Avenue, Miami, FL 33199 www.fiu.edu/~geology No. 03 VIRGINIA KEY BEACH COUNTY PARK (v.1.0, 5-06) Prepared by Grenville Draper Department of Earth Sciences Location and access Take the Rickenbacker Causeway as if going to the beaches on Key Biscayne. Just after passing the Seaquarium (and just before the bridge to Key Biscayne), turn left on the road that leads to the water treatment plant and the parking area for Virginia Key beach. (Unless you have made prior arrangements, you will have to pay the entrance fee to the park). Continue until the fork in the road, then turn right into the parking area. What there is to see Aspects of beach dynamics and erosion. Backround Like Miami Beach and Key Biscayne, Virginia Key is a sedimentary barrier island. Virginia Key and Key Biscayne are parts of the barrier island system which stretches along most of the coast of southeastern Florida. About 20,000 years ago, a glacial period ended and the climate began to warm. During the glacial period, sea level had been as much as 100m. (300 ft.) below present sea level. As the climate warmed, sea level started to rise to its present level. It is from this period that the barrier islands of Miami Beach, Virginia Key, and Key Biscayne began to be formed. Sediments were carried by longshore currents, and consisted of a mixture of carbonate (shell fragments, coral fragments, etc.) and quartz sand.
