Big Pine Key is an unincorporated community in the Lower Keys and the second largest of the Florida Keys. It is home to most of the endangered Key deer, the smallest subspecies of white-tailed deer. About 75 percent of the Key deer live on Big Pine and No Name Keys, and the National Key Deer Refuge was established in 1957. The 2020 census counted 4,521 residents.
U.S. 1 crosses the key at mile markers 29.5 to 33, one of few places in the Keys where the highway runs north to south. Watson Boulevard was the original path of the Overseas Highway. The Blue Hole, a limestone quarry created in the 1920s during construction of State Road 4A, now holds fresh water and alligators. Big Pine Key was a station on Henry Flagler's Overseas Railroad.
