Beginning at the US 98/SR 30 in Navarre, it first heads north-south, traveling on the Navaree Bridge, which links the mainland to Santa Rosa Island. In Pensacola Beach, the road splits, with the north-south causeway to US 98, and the other road leading to Fort Pickens, which is considered the main road. In Gulf Islands National Seashore, it ends as a cul-de-sac at a parking lot.
