Florida Keys are the chain of islands located in Sothern Florida. A one of a kind, it’s surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico stretching out as far as the eye can see, paralleling the historic railroad bridges that brought the first travelers to the Keys by land. Before that, the only way to get to the Keys was by boat.
The Florida Keys Scenic Highway travels through some of the nation’s most spectacular scenery. Folks in the Florida Keys describe the stretch of US 1 from Key Largo to Key West as the “Road to Paradise.” The Florida Keys Scenic Highway allows you to drive to the Southernmost Islands in the Continental United States from Mile Marker 110 down through the Florida Keys to Mile Marker 0.
