State Road 800 (SR 800), locally known as Spanish River Boulevard or Northwest 40th Street, is a short east–west highway in Boca Raton, Florida. Its western terminus is an intersection with County Road 809, locally known as Military Trail; the eastern terminus is an intersection with North Ocean Boulevard (Florida State Road A1A) near the Atlantic Ocean shoreline at the northeastern corner of Spanish River Park.
