Before you set off
Read bends conservatively and observe current limits. The waterfront is a separate parking-and-walking visit, not a driving promenade. Check current road closures and conditions before travel. Driving time is an estimate without stops or live traffic. The plotted route follows the driving roads. Nearby towns, attractions and photo subjects are optional independent visits; leave and rejoin the route only if you choose. No stop detours are included in the driving line.
