There is no drive in America quite like the Overseas Highway to Key West. From Palm Coast, the roughly 500-mile journey takes you south through the heart of Florida and then onto one of the most iconic stretches of road on the planet: US-1 through the Florida Keys, crossing 42 bridges over crystalline turquoise water with nothing but ocean, mangroves, and sky in every direction.
At seven and a half hours, this is not a quick commute. It is an experience. And it is an experience best enjoyed from the back seat of a luxury SUV, where you can take in the scenery without worrying about navigation, traffic, or the narrow bridges that make some drivers nervous. Our professional drivers have made this trip many times and know every mile of the route, from the turnpike through Miami to the final bridge into Key West.
The route passes through some of Florida's most remarkable landscapes. After leaving the mainland at Florida City, you enter Key Largo, the first and largest of the Keys, known for its world-class diving at John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park. Continuing south, Islamorada is the self-proclaimed sport fishing capital of the world, with stunning views from its bridges. Marathon sits at the midpoint and offers the famous Seven Mile Bridge crossing, one of the most photographed stretches of highway in the world.
Many passengers choose to make this a leisurely journey with a stop or two along the way. We are happy to pause in Islamorada for lunch at a waterfront restaurant, or pull over at Bahia Honda State Park for a short walk on what is consistently ranked one of America's best beaches. The trip becomes as much about the Keys experience as the Key West destination itself.
For those on a tighter schedule, we drive the route efficiently and comfortably, keeping you refreshed with snacks, water, and chargers throughout the journey. You arrive in Key West relaxed and ready to enjoy Duval Street, Mallory Square, and everything the Southernmost Point has to offer. No rental car to return, no airport hassle, no navigating unfamiliar roads after a long flight. Just a beautiful ride and a perfect arrival.
Extra provisions for the longer journey. Stay refreshed for all 7.5 hours.

We provide snacks, water, and chargers. For a trip this length, we recommend sunglasses for the bridge crossings, entertainment for the ride, and a light jacket since the AC keeps the cabin cool.
Most visitors do not. Key West's Old Town is very walkable, and bikes and scooters are available to rent everywhere. Not having a car actually saves you the hassle of expensive and limited parking.
