The drive

SR 300 leaves US 98 at Eastpoint and crosses Apalachicola Bay on the Bryant Patton Bridge, which is about four miles long and opened in 2004. Open water lies on both sides for much of the crossing.

On the island the road becomes Gulf Beach Drive and runs east past low dunes and beach houses to the entrance of Dr. Julian G. Bruce St. George Island State Park, where the drive ends. The drive crosses the US 98 Forgotten Coast drive at Eastpoint.
