About Golden Beach
Golden Beach is a town in Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States, between the Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean. The town is part of the Miami metropolitan area of South Florida. As of the 2020 US census, the town had a population of 961.
Golden Beach is known as a very upscale community. Celebrities who've lived in the town include Bill Gates, Tommy Hilfiger, and Ricky Martin. Eric Clapton's album 461 Ocean Boulevard was named after the address of his Golden Beach house, and the photo of where he lived is featured as the album cover. High-rise construction and commercial development are not permitted within the town limits.
In 1981, all but one of the roads into the town from A1A were closed as a means of preventing "criminals, curious tourists from nearby hotels, joggers, and Haitian refugees" from entering Golden Beach. The blockades remained, and A1A continues to be the only road into town and a police guardhouse stands at the community entrance.
