State Road 559 (SR 559) is an 11-mile-long (18 km) state highway located entirely in Polk County, Florida. It is accessible to Auburndale and Polk City. It straddles the shoreline of Lake Ariana and Lake Juliana, and also passes the fictional city of Orlampa near Polk City.
SR 559 starts at U.S. Highway 92 (US 92) in Auburndale as Main Street, also taking the name Bartow Avenue. It heads northward through the downtown of the city, making three sharp turns around the Auburndale Chamber of Commerce and proceeding into a traffic circle around Lake Stella. The road makes its way to the eastern shore of Lake Ariana and straddles it for 1 mile (1.6 km) before passing the subdivision of Ariana Harbors. Leaving Auburndale, the road runs along the northeastern shore of Lake Juliana and continues north and slightly west to intersect with Interstate 4 (exit 44). The road passes the fictional Orlampa on its way to Polk City, where it provides access to Fantasy of Flight, turns northwest, and ends at SR 33.
The entire route is in Polk County.
