About
That no bridge connects Fisher Island to the mainland isn't an oversight — it's precisely the point. This 216-acre private island holds the title of America's wealthiest zip code, with average household income exceeding $2 million, and it's the ferry-only access that makes such exclusivity possible. Mediterranean-style residences, a world-class golf course, a pristine private beach, and the legendary Vanderbilt mansion club shape daily life on the island. Tennis courts, a full-service spa, marina, and helipad round out a self-contained luxury world that offers total privacy to those who require it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about buying and investing in this area
How do you get to Fisher Island?
There's no bridge linking Fisher Island to the mainland — you get there only by private ferry, yacht, or helicopter. Residents count on the dedicated car ferry, which runs around the clock and covers the distance from Miami Beach's terminal in just 7 minutes.
Why is Fisher Island so expensive?
Fisher Island holds a steady claim to the title of America's wealthiest zip code, with average household income surpassing $2 million. That exclusivity comes from a convergence of factors you won't find together anywhere else: absolute privacy enforced by ferry-only access, world-class on-island amenities, a private beach, championship golf, and an inventory so constrained that demand perpetually outpaces supply.
How much are condos on Fisher Island?
Prices range from $3-5 million for older residences up to $50 million and beyond for the newest waterfront penthouses. The average transaction settles in the $8-12 million range, and annual costs — which include club membership — routinely exceed $100,000.
What amenities does Fisher Island offer?
Fisher Island works as a fully self-sufficient luxury destination. On the island you'll find a championship golf course, a full tennis center, a marina, a private beach club, a spa, multiple dining venues, the landmark historic Vanderbilt mansion, and a helipad. Concierge services run continuously, around the clock.
Can tourists visit Fisher Island?
The island is entirely private and closed to the general public without exception. Access stays reserved for residents, their personal guests, and club members. There's one narrow exception: prospective buyers touring properties alongside a licensed real estate agent may obtain a day pass.
