State Road 29 (SR 29) is a roadway that runs north–south through Southwest Florida. A rural road, it runs mostly through uninhabited farmland in its northern half, and along wetlands in its southern half.

The road's northern terminus is an intersection with US 27 (unsigned SR 25), just south of Palmdale. Locally, it is also known as Main Street and Collier Avenue. SR 29 then runs through the center of the city of La Belle, continuing due south to Immokalee, another small farming town with large migrant populations. From Immokalee, SR 29 travels along the western edge of the Big Cypress National Preserve and the eastern edge of the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge and the Fakahatchee Strand Preserve State Forest before reaching its southern terminus at US 41 (Tamiami Trail).
Before the Florida Department of Transportation removed a large number of State Roads from its list for state control and maintenance, SR 29 continued south through the towns of Jerome, Copeland, and then meeting Everglades City just outside of the Everglades National Park. Now designated Collier County Road 29 north of Everglades City and Collier County Road 29A south of it, the historic southern terminus of SR 29 is in Chokoloskee, on Chokoloskee Island within the National Park.
