A1A Scenic & Historic Coastal Byway
Washington Oaks Gardens State Park, FL

The gardens at Washington Oaks are a primary focal point of the park. However, it is the integrity of the surrounding area, the rocky shore, the barrier island setting, the vanishing coastal scrub, the dense hardwood hammock and the open expanse of its saltwater marshes that offers the visitors an exceptional river to sea experience. There are trails along the canopy road, which was once "Old A1A," a historic, scenic resource within the park. The park contains significant natural, recreational, historic/cultural, educational, and scenic resources.
