All of A1A south from St. Augustine is a good ride. Go west from there and most parts along side of the river (east side or west side) have some nice curvy roads to ride along the river.
For anyone wanting to visit for the first time it depends on what you like. Florida has a lot to offer riders. The keys from the blue wall south to mile marker 0 is a good ride but will take you about 3-4 hours. They have very strict speed limits and most of it is 45 miles an hour. Stay away from heavily populated areas like Orlando, and Tampa. Too much crap traffic for casual riding in my opinion. Jacksonville isn't that bad it's more open but they are in an infinite construction zone.

Coming from the PNW it may be shocking to see that your new riding ground is all flat, lol. Depending on the time of the year, the further south you go in the state, the more the humidity actually feels like hell on earth! Maybe thats why FL is known as the armpit of the United States. I usually rent a house in St Augustine for Daytona bike week, nice little historical town, oldest city in America.

But, if you get outside of the city limits, it's like a different world. Interstate 4 is akin to the not-so-underground tube they all use to co-mingle amongst the state from the various bad-driver hives. IMHO.
