Matanzas Inlet | Florida History | Spanish Massacre of French in 1565!

In September 1565, this little-known inlet would be the site of one of the bloodiest days in the early struggle to control Florida. These sand dunes would soon be soaked in blood and the inlet and river connected to it will forever bare the name…Matanzas.

Well next time you’re in the area let me know! Tons of stuff to see. Especially in St Augustine.
