The Tamiami Trail is the southernmost 284 miles (457 km) of U.S. Highway 41 (US 41) from State Road 60 (SR 60) in Tampa to US 1 in Miami. A portion of the road also has the hidden designation of State Road 90 (SR 90).
Alligators are a common sight along the scenic Tamiami Trail from Miami to Naples. Unlike its sister Alligator Alley, the trail is only one lane in each direction and has no fences to keep wildlife from traversing it.

Roadside attractions, sometimes called tourist traps, were a part of the folk character of Tamiami before the interstates. Today, some of these attractions remain, including this greeter/creature at the Skunk-Ape Research Headquarters in Ochopee.
