  • Did you know that St. Augustine is the oldest city* in the US?! (*well, with a caveat) We spent a day wandering around the historic streets, having Australian coffee and meat pies, visiting Castillo de San Marcos and the St. Augustine Lighthouse, and eating the best popsicles ever. We loved the history and charm in St. Augustine and had a blast!

    Been there many times from NY. It has been our vacation spot for about 12 years and we have visited 15 times or more. We have been there when vacationers flock there, and during off season, and have enjoyed it equally. Now we know where the locals go and how to avoid crowds, and to relax and have a great visit. Great food, beaches, and historical sites are a few of the best welcoming things that make it a special place to visit. We have stayed at the beach condos on A1A, and rented homes in town and have enjoyed St. Augustine each time. Daytona, or Jacksonville are about an hour in either direction for a day trip.

A great place to stay is 93 King...the smallest hotel in St Augustine...literally! The food, the shopping, the history. Sooooo many wonderful experiences to be had there. We are looking to move there within the next year. Thanks for sharing your experience. I have never met a person who HASN'T enjoyed St. Augustine.

    We hit up St. Augustine as part of our little Florida getaway for Memorial Day weekend. St. Augustine on Saturday and then Canaveral National Seashore on Sunday/Monday. I watched your video in advance to see your take on the city and see if I overlooked anything. BTW, nice video. Good walking tour of the historic district and drone shots always win me over.
    Based on your recommendation, we hit up the Hyppo and that was hit for all of us. Chocolate-dipped coconut for the win. We played this one low key and really didn’t have a plan besides seeing Castillo de San Marcos. Just had a nice time walking the city, stopping in shops, and enjoying the architecture. It really is a beautiful town. In the late afternoon, went over to Anastasia Island and hit up the beach and had Osprey Tacos for dinner. Good tacos but the smallest servings of salsa I have ever seen.

On Monday, Presidents Day, we were at the Alligator Farm. We spent almost the entire week there. We go there every year because it is an amazing place. There is also, unlike home, no snow there in February. Great video! Happy travels!

    As a resident I can tell you that while it's fun to visit, living here is daily frustration. My number one advice for anyone who has never been here before and wants to visit: Uber everywhere. Between downtown having almost no parking 24/7, parking lots charging ridiculous prices, and people driving like absolute Maniacs, it's better for you to take an Uber so you can just get out and go plus you can risk someone else's car in the insane traffic rather than your own

    No, the best thing to do in St. Augustine is visiting 'Ripley's Believe it or not!' HAHA well, if you are a kid or a kid at heart. St. Augustine clam to fame is different depending on who you ask. Is it the first settlement in the US, the longest occupied Settlement, the oldest city in Florida? The answer is: It is the oldest inhabited European-established settlement in the lower 48. The oldest still inhabited "community" in the lower 48 is Acoma Pueblo, New Mexico which was founded around 1100. The difference is St Augustine is the same city with many of the same structures since it was founded in 1565 while Acoma Pueblo has been located in the same place but the settlements there have been destroyed over the years with new ones being built.
    St. Augustine is a unique place mainly because of many of the buildings there are over 400 years old and feels like you have travel back in time but like you said, it has become very touristy. You were smart getting the America the Beautiful park pass because for you guys, you will be visiting a lot of national parks and reserves which after a few stops the card pays for itself. I hope you guys enjoyed Florida, Come back now you hear!

Their shell chocolates melt in your mouth! We always get there chocolate covered bananas too. They have a tour and give some delicious free chocolates as samples during it. It's like a novelty. Mangos mangos is the best also! They have been around for like 20 years! Their coconut shrimp and pine colada sauce is to die for! You also have to take a tour of the oldest schoolhouse! It's very interesting and historical. Downtown is cool. You can walk down the roads with no cars and shop there. You guys should go to the beach also. Mojos tacos has the best tacos! They're so good with a little spice to them too! There's also the fountain of youth that's historical. I know you guys like history. I really hope you guys will go to St. Augustine next!

I loved seeing your visit to the lighthouse in St Augustine. i just really love lighthouses. I have pictures of probably 50 or more lighthouses from Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Mississippi, Washington and Oregon. I hope to get some pictures of lighthouses from Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine and maybe New York, & Ohio next year. I would say that my favorite pictures subjects are Lighthouses, Waterfalls, Lake or ocean shore and mountains.

    Will be there in 2 weeks & Loved your Video . Been to St Augustine a few time years ago in July but it was toooo hot & thinking I will enjoy the March weather . Also staying in a house in the historic area which sound like fun . We will check out your coffee shop.

      The weather when we went (two weeks ago) was so nice! A tad chilly at times, but with the sun out it felt perfect! And the house in the historic area will be SO fun! We hope you have a great time and enjoy a flat white for us! 🤗
