Florida State Road A1A
Encyclopedia
State Road A1A is a Florida State Road that runs mostly along the Atlantic Ocean
, with sections from Key West
at the southern tip of Florida
, to Callahan
, just south of Georgia
. It is the main road through most oceanfront towns. SR A1A is designated the A1A Scenic and Historic Coastal Highway, a National Scenic Byway
. It is also called the Indian River Lagoon Scenic Highway
from Wabasso Causeway to U.S. Route 1 in Cocoa
. In Key West
it is also called South Roosevelt Boulevard. In Miami, it begins at MacArthur Causeway
before becoming Collins Avenue
at Fifth Street in Miami Beach
(or, in small segments, Harding Avenue, Abbott Avenue, or Indian Creek Drive). In the town of Surfside
, the northbound is Collins Avenue, and the southbound is Harding Avenue. In Bal Harbour
it is called Bal Harbour Boulevard. In Golden Beach
it is called Ocean Boulevard.
The designation is unique: other than Alternate SR A1A (now SR 811
, SR 707
, SR 732
, and an extension of SR 842
), only two other Florida State Roads have begun with a letter: SR A19A
(now a loop of SR 693
-SR 699
-SR 682 near St. Petersburg
), and SR G1A (now SR 300) have existed.
The road was assigned the number SR 1 in the 1945 renumbering
as the easternmost major north–south road. However, tourists and residents confused the road with the parallel U.S. Route 1
, so the name was changed to SR A1A, which stands for "Atlantic 1 Alternate". The State Road Board
changed the designation to SR A1A on November 25, 1946, about a year and a half after the renumbering. SR A1A is signed north–south.
SR A1A is heavily associated with Florida beach culture and is known for its lush tropical and subtropical scenery and ocean vistas. In many places, the highway directly fronts the Atlantic Ocean
, and in other places, runs 1-5 blocks inland from the beachfront. For most of its length, A1A runs along Florida's East Coast Barrier Islands, separated from the mainland of the state by the Intracoastal Waterway
. Because of the road's proximity to the ocean and its susceptibility to storm surge
s, sections of A1A are often closed or even damaged by hurricanes and tropical storms. North of Atlantic Beach, however, A1A turns inland for several blocks before resuming a northward course that ends at the St. John's River. A ferry takes vehicular traffic to the northern section of A1A which continues inland toward Callahan.
A1A also has been a backbone of Florida Spring Break
, serving as "the strip" in both Fort Lauderdale, a popular spring break destination in the 60s, 70s, and 80s, as well as Daytona Beach, which became a popular destination for college spring breakers in the 80s through the present. In Miami Beach, A1A serves as Collins Avenue, one of the city's main north–south thoroughfares, and travels a similar route through exclusive Palm Beach
, further to the north. In the Vero Beach area, it is known as The Robert C. Spillman Memorial Highway and it bridges Sebastian Inlet at the Sebastian Inlet Bridge
. It then passes just to the west of Cape Canaveral
and the Kennedy Space Center
. Two miles of A1A were used as part of the legendary Daytona Beach Road Course
. A1A also passes through St. Augustine
, the oldest continuously-inhabited city in the mainland United States
.It is known as Third Street in Jacksonville, Neptune, and Atlantic Beach.
SR A1A's southern terminus is at the southern end of Bertha Street, where SR A1A begins as a 2 lane, then 4 lane route along the Straits of Florida
in Key West
, known locally as South Roosevelt Boulevard. Running along the south shore of Key West, SR A1A is the southernmost numbered highway in the lower 48 states. The southern terminus is Bertha Street, where it heads east past East Martello Tower
and Key West International Airport
. SR A1A then curves to the north to U.S. Route 1/SR 5 (Overseas Highway
), after intersecting with CR 5A
(Flagler Avenue). SR A1A reappears at I-395
and US 1 in Miami
.
Prior to the 1945 renumbering
, the route that became SR 1 had the following numbers:
SR 1 was defined in the 1945 renumbering
as:
. The narrow, seven-and-a-half mile long road is located between Old Winter Beach Road and the current A1A, along the western side of Orchid Island
, and is unpaved. It is part of the Indian River Lagoon Scenic Highway
system, and the southernmost road in the highway system.
The road started as a means to quickly transport citrus to packinghouses on the mainland, then in the 1930s and 1940s became more used by tourists. On August 1, 2003, it was added to the U.S.

Volusia County Road A1A is a 7 miles (11.3 km) spur route
of State Road A1A at Volusia County
, Florida
, United States
. The route begins at U.S. Route 1 and State Road A1A at Downtown New Smyrna Beach
as Lyte Avenue. Next, the route crosses the Intercoastal Waterway and Callalisa Creek before heading southbound. After the 2 bridges, the road becomes 3rd Avenue, the northern terminus of Saxon Drive as the first right after Callalisa Creek. East of Indian River Village Shopping Center, the road turns southward and becomes Atlantic Avenue. At the intersection
of 27th Avenue, the road becomes 2 lane
s wide. Less than a mile south of New Smyrna Beach, Saxon Drive ends. At Bethune Beach
, the road slightly turns away from the Atlantic Ocean
. The road became Turtle Mound Road at that point. After Bethune Beach, the road is midway between the Intercoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean
. At this point, a gate
brings access to Canaveral National Seashore
