St Augustine

Complete Travel Guide to St Augustine: Top Attractions, Tips & Itinerary

Why Visit St Augustine? # The scent of salt marsh and sun-warmed coquina stone hangs heavy in the humid Florida air, welcoming visitors to a city that predates Jamestown by over forty years. Narrow coquina-walled lanes, shaded by draping live oaks dripping with Spanish moss, invite a slower pace of travel. Founded by Spanish explorers in 1565, this coastal destination functions as a living history museum where centuries-old architecture meets modern beach town laid-back culture.
