This road trip offers great balance of an open relaxing highway and a rural road. There's just the right amount of scenery to make you want to run this route over and over and never get tired of it. You'll love this route!
Starting out at US-1 and Seaway Drive (A1A), head east to the beach. After turning to S. Ocean drive you'll hit a 12 mile run of a flawless highway. About fifteen miles further down the road is the Jensen Beach "round-a-bout". Keep going south here because if you head west, you'll shorten the route by about ten miles. Cross over the two new Bridges and go north on Indian River Drive.
The speed limit here is 35 mph! You'll be ticketed for going faster than 38 mph on this section.

Once past there, you'll be driving along the Indian River Lagoon for more than 18 miles. You'll travel through Jensen Beach, a few railroad "whistle stops" and then come out into Fort Pierce and the beginning of the route.

Along the way you'll be passing through a few towns sprinkled between stretches of beach scenery. The roads here are two lane roads
with minor hills and dips and numerous slight twists, turns and curves.

If you keep driving along A1A you'll end up at the beach. You can grab coffee and a bite to eat at Angelina's or Dave's Breakfast. Gas is available at the Texaco or Cumberland.
Along this route you'll also have access to a number of County Beaches, a few convenience stores, and a concession at the beach boardwalk at the Jensen round-a-bout. You can stop and visit the "Elliott Museum", located near the end of the beach run. "Elliott" has an original 1929 Indian Motorcycle as well as quite a few cars.
You will find Nature Centers and a few shops and restaurants on the return run of this route. Sewell's Point, Jensen Beach and Fort Pierce offer plenty of shops, sights and places to eat.
If you find yourself along this route on a Thursday, you'll be coming back into Fort Pierce for the weekly "Bike Night". They close off 2nd St., except for bikes, fire up the band and open the doors to the restaurants in town.
