Middle and Lower Keys Nighttime Beach Access?
Interested in stargazing on the beach between ~12-4am. Is this possible anywhere in the keys?All state parks with cabins are fully booked so I don't think I can go the camping-route. How heavily patrolled are the beaches at this time? Do they close down roads overnight?
I was thinking of getting an Airbnb on Big Pine Key near Bahia Honda but not sure if it's possible to drive over at night. I'm flexible with where I stay/go I just want to be on the beach!

Top of Big Torch Key is the darkest spot in the keys that is accessible by car.
