Indian Creek Island is part of Miami and administratively belongs to the state of Florida. It is a piece of land with an area of only 1.2 square kilometers and resembles a piece of bread. Bay of Biscay to the west, Miami Beach to the north, east and south. Just 30 years ago, it was a settlement of cottages for a modest price of one million dollars. In the late 1990s, cottages began to give way to large mansions. Today, the average price of a house in this subtropical enclave is close to 50 million euros.
Access to the island from the east is protected by a heavily guarded bridge over the settlement of Surfside. You can only get there if you are a resident of the island or an authorized and declared guest. The entrance is guarded 24 hours a day by police, security and boats patrolling the coastline. A car is mostly unnecessary, as there are no roads on Indian Creek, except for one fairly narrow ring that skirts the shores of the island and ends in a dead end. It serves the owners as the only access to the residences located here. Also vendors to deliver your purchases as there are no shops, cafes or restaurants on the island. This did not prevent this small street from becoming one of the most expensive streets in the world, considering that in 2022 the average price of a house here was 2 million USD.
