A1A Scenic & Historic Coastal Byway | American Tour Association

A GOOD REASON TO GO

All-American Road

A1A Scenic & Historic Coastal Byway is entrenched in American history, home to the first continuously inhabited city in America – St. Augustine, Florida. This roadway inspires awe as travelers climb the St. Augustine Lighthouse steps, cross the Matanzas Inlet, or observe the spires of St. Augustine in the sunset. Visitors traveling along the A1A Scenic & Historic Coastal Byway are impressed that this very place has attracted visitors from across the world to “La Florida” for over 500 years.

Sunset over the estuary at Washington Oaks Gardens State Park is a time to watch the birds fly home to roost and the manatee play while the setting sun ends another day along the A1A Scenic Byway. — Enjoying the Sunset over the Estuary
