Looking for the ultimate road trip vibes? Florida’s got you covered.

So, What Makes Highway 1 The Road to Be On?

Picture this: 112 miles of pure beauty, stretching from Miami all the way to Key West. Along the way, you’ll cross 42 bridges (yes, 42!), all hovering over turquoise waters that make you feel like you’re gliding right into the ocean. 🚤

This iconic drive, also known as the “Highway That Goes to the Sea,” is perfect for taking your time and soaking in the views. Though you could technically drive it in about four hours, let’s be real, you’re gonna want to stretch it out and make the most of it.

Local Eateries: Expect some awesome hidden gem spots to grab fresh seafood or sip on tropical drinks. 🍤🌴
Snap Those Pics: The views are fire, so your Insta game’s about to level up.
