How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
A lighthouse at the southern end of Ocean Beach that the player can climb in the original game, with a hidden package at its base.
The real place
The Cape Florida Light was first built in 1825 and relit in 1847, and it stands in Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park on Key Biscayne. The game moves it from Key Biscayne to the tip of its South Beach equivalent.
Visiting
The state park charges an entry fee per vehicle, and guided climbs of the lighthouse run only at set times, so check the Florida State Parks website first. Leave time for the beach and the bay-side seawall.
