Six routes worth planning a whole day around: top down, ocean in view.
A coast built for cruising
South Florida might have more great driving per mile than anywhere in the country. Ocean roads, palm-lined causeways, island boulevards and neon-lit strips are all within easy reach of each other. The best way to experience them is top-down and open-air in a Polaris Slingshot.
A1A along the Atlantic
The classic. A1A traces the coastline from Palm Beach through Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood down to Miami Beach, linking beach town after beach town with the ocean rarely out of sight. Our full A1A guide breaks it down.
Ocean Drive and South Beach
Short but unforgettable, Ocean Drive is a slow roll past the pastel facades of the Art Deco Historic District. Neon signs, palm trees and turquoise water make this the most iconic urban cruise in Miami. Time it for dusk when the lights flicker on.
Las Olas Boulevard and the Isles
In Fort Lauderdale, Las Olas Boulevard delivers cafes, boutiques and gallery windows before spilling toward the beach. Detour into the Isles to glide past waterfront mansions and yacht-lined canals, the “Venice of America”. See our Fort Lauderdale rentals.
Palm Beach and Ocean Boulevard
Up north, Ocean Boulevard runs along the barrier island of Palm Beach with hedges, mansions and sea views. Pair it with a stroll down Worth Avenue for a taste of the island’s old-world glamour.
The causeways to Key Biscayne
Few drives feel as freeing as crossing a causeway with water on both sides. The route out toward Key Biscayne serves up sweeping bay views, skyline panoramas and that open-water feeling you can only really appreciate in an open-air Slingshot.
Hollywood Beach and the Broadwalk area
Around Hollywood, the coastal roads near the brick-paved Broadwalk make for a mellow, family-friendly cruise. Park nearby, walk the oceanfront promenade, then hop back in. See our Hollywood Beach rentals.
Tips for a great scenic day
Chain them together, since many of these routes connect into one loop. Chase the light: sunrise and sunset are unbeatable for views and photos. Pack sunscreen and sunglasses. And drive relaxed, because scenic means slow.
