directions to Econfina

Post by springcreekcanoes »

Alright I know how to get to the econfina but I want to avoid Tally. How can i get there from Bainbridge? I know there is a way from Cairo down to maybe highway 59 that crosses over I10 and 27.

59 is a good route

I just want to avoid Tally trafic on Friday at 5:00. How do I get 59 from 84. I know there is a turnoff somewhere around Cairo but not sure what road. I have tried my GPS but there are some back roads I am not sure about. last time I tried it comimg back home I ended up in Thomasville.

Just come South down 319, turn left North of Tally on Bradfordville Rd / Bannerman Rd., follow that across Centerville Rd. and Micosukee Rd and keep going until you hit US-90. Turn Left (East) on US-90 and follow that to SR-59, then follow 59 through Wacissa and down to 98.

Slow down on 319 coming into Tally around Chile High School. The law watches that area a lot.

you could also take 19 s from thomasville, pickup waukeenah hwy just south of monticello, and then pickup 59.....you'd be going way out of the way, but if you're trying to avoid t-town altogether, that's the only thing i can think of.

While we're on the subject of directions, what is the fastest way for me to get from Dothan, AL to St. Marks Lighthouse Landing. I'm also wanting to avoid as much of Tallahassee as possible.

Thanks. I made a run to St. Marks a few years ago to fish with PA and I thought I'd never get through Tallahassee. And Sea Dawg, don't you mean Elbee! :)
