What is the most comfortable route to drive from Barrington RI to Naples Fl?

Answer 1

It may not be the most comfortable route but this route is the best: (1,537 miles)

1. Take SR-114 NORTH, from Barrington, to I-195 WEST to PROVIDENCE.
2. Take I-195 WEST to I-95 SOUTH to NEW YORK.
3. Take I-95 SOUTH all the way down to I-10 WEST to LAKE CITY, via I-295 WEST BELTWAY (FL) to bypass JACKSONVILLE (EXIT 362B off I-95 in FLORIDA to get onto I-295 WEST BELTWAY; EXIT 21B off I-295 to get onto I-10 WEST to LAKE CITY). Also, to bypass RICHMOND, VA, take I-295 SOUTH (VA) (EXIT 84A off I-95 in VIRGINIA to get onto I-295 SOUTH to ROCKY MOUNT, NC).
4. Take I-10 WEST to I-75 SOUTH to TAMPA at EXIT 296A, near Lake City.
5. Take I-75 SOUTH to Naples.

If you want to you can cut through the Delmarva Peninsula starting from Delaware and cut along the Coast; however this adds significantly more time. This route is also longer at 1,555 miles.

What you do is is

1. From I-95 in DELAWARE (Delaware Turnpike), take EXIT 4A onto DE-1 (toll) SOUTH to DOVER. Then take SR-1 (toll) SOUTH to U.S. 13 SOUTH to NORFOLK at EXIT 97 in Dover.
2. Take U.S. 13 SOUTH, down the Delmarva Peninsula (through Delaware, Maryland and part of Virginia), and across/through the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel to I-64 EAST (Hampton Roads Beltway) to CHESAPEAKE in Virginia Beach.
3. Take I-64 EAST around to U.S. 17 SOUTH to ELIZABETH CITY at EXIT 291B.
4. Take U.S. 17 SOUTH down to I-95 SOUTH to SAVANNAH, past Charleston, via SC-31 WEST to bypass MYRTLE BEACH, SC (via SC-9 NORTH to connect to SC-31; AND via SC-544 EAST to connect back to U.S. 17 SOUTH to Georgetown), and via I-526 WEST to bypass CHARLESTON, SC.
5. From there you will follow directions on I-95 down to Jacksonville.
