St. Augustine is located in St. Johns County in North Florida, just 30 minutes south of Jacksonville. Founded in 1565, it is best known as the nation’s oldest city. The city boasts a plethora of historically significant structures, perhaps none as famous as Castillo de San Marcos, built between 1672 and 1695.
Attractions in St. Augustine include historic churches, living history museums, antiques stores, charming restaurants and B&Bs, and shops. Horse-drawn carriages clip-clop through the historic district, and ghost tours show you the area’s secrets.
