PAN AM SEA PLANE BASE We continue south and circle many small islands adjacent to the mainland, passing the Biscayne Yacht Club and U. S. Coast Guard seaplane base. We approach the greatest of all international airway systems, the Pan-American, with airlanes extending thousands of miles between Central and South America, Europe, Asia, and many other foreign lands. Miami’s proximity to South America has fostered the growth of a large Latin American colony, and made her an important center for Pan-American relations. It is a sight worth while to see these great airliners sailing gracefully through the air and gliding down to the peaceful waters of Bay Biscayne, terminating at Miami. This thrilling experience is all the more striking when seen from the observation deck of the Yacht “Dixie”. CAPE FLORIDA Leaving the mainland and Miami in the background, crossing the bay at its widest point, our cruise now takes us to Cape Florida—a section rich in romance and historic atmosphere. A former pirate stronghold, dating back to the Spanish main. We follow the route of Ponce de Leon along the inland coast of Biscayne Bay. You will marvel at the colorful scenery and sparkling beauty of the crystal-clear water, dotted with islands and keys, enchanting and alluring. Standing like a sentinel and towering majestically before us, at the extreme southern tip of Biscayne Key we sight the ancient lighthouse of historic fame, the scene of many naval battles and Indian massacre. At this historic spot many ships came to grief. This is a sight never to be forgotten, also a famous landmark that can only be seen by boat. A good view of the broad Atlantic can be had from this point. Member of A. A. A. MIAMI CHAMBER OF COMMERCE (COPYRIGHT. 1941. A . G . H .
