The Florida State Road A1A (short FL A1A ) is a state highway in the US state of Florida , the north-south-running in. It usually runs close to the coast along the east coast of the state.
Route
The State Road begins in Key West in Monroe County and runs on a short section of the Overseas Highway together with US Highway 1 to Marathon . The route as A1A to Miami is then interrupted. Only the MacArthur Causeway from Miami to Miami Beach has this name again. Then, with a few exceptions, the road leads along barrier islands between the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean along the Florida coast. Exceptions to this are a section at Fort Lauderdale , another section from West Palm Beach to Riviera Beach , from Jupiter to Stuart , at Fort Pierce and from Cocoa to Daytona Beach . In these cases the route is often identical to US Highway 1 ( FL 5 ). At Jacksonville , the St. Johns River is crossed by ferry. At Fernandina Beach , just before the Georgia border , the road leaves the coastal area and turns west. It continues over Yulee , crosses Interstate 95 and ends in Callahan , Nassau County .
