This ride was 20 minutes from my home and I felt like I was in old Florida near the Keys. Lovely simple roads with lots of scenic places to stop and relax in. If you want a nice afternoon without traffic, with grassy waters and a beach or two to stop and enjoy, this is the ride. It takes about an hour or two with stops. I'm eager to return and watch the sun set at Pine Island Park. I'll take pictures and post when I do. THis is a relaxing scenic ride along the gulf. Not a ride for those who are looking to race around twisty turns.

Do not underestimate this route! It has great scenery, nice turns and even some amenities. I saw wild turkeys, tall cranes and even a bald eagle. If you do it in the evening, you'll get the sun reflecting off the gulf as a bonus. After you arrive at the north end, you aren't to far away from the Citrus County 476 route.

I have done this ride with my father and friends several times. It is a great scenic route that makes you feel like you are in the Florida Keys even though you are turning off a US Highway 19N There are some great turns and straight aways. There is one stretch that is directly adjacent to the gulf that is absolutely beautiful. Near the end of the trip the "upper deck", which sits on the weekie watchee river, is a great restaurant bar to grab a bite to eat. If you pass the upper deck headed north you will dead end into Cortez boulevard. Make a left and Bayport inn will be a few miles up on the right and is another nice pitstop to grab a bite to eat. After you eat make sure drive down to the end and visit Pine island. Im not sure why that wasn't included on this trip. This is worth the trip and the only negative is you maybe wishing it was longer.

This is a good ride and very close to my home in Hudson Beach. I would suggest you head west on Cortez Blvd and check out that road to the end, there is a nice park at Bayport for fishing or boating and then head up to Pine Island on Pine Island Dr to spend some time at the beautiful beach there.

Not the longest ride but as I believe others have said, but the scenery is pure native Florida! For the adventure touring folks, you can start the route at FL52 to Old Dixie Highway which turns into a decent dirt road just south of Aripeka rd. Stop off for one and a bite at The Drunken Mullet in Hernando Beach, great little place and it's on the water!

This has to be one of my favorite rides so far. There are lots of twists and turns, with beautiful scenery. Traffic is light, and there are places to stop for food along the way.

Love the scenery, some roads run right along the shoreline of the gulf. Plenty of locally owned restaurants along the river that are still open for takeout during the COVID-19 shutdown. We live north of Tampa and ride with a small group of friends, it’s a very nice ride.
