Historic Downtown St. Augustine

Explore the St. Augustine historic district and you’ll find it to be a unique relic of the history of Florida and is a must-see when visiting! Here you’ll be immersed in the culture of the nation’s oldest city where many of the buildings and landmarks date back to the 1700s and today are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.


If you're staying in Ponte Vedra Beach, you're a good 40-45 minutes from Downtown Saint Augustine, so plan accordingly! If you're planning on arriving early or staying beyond the weekend, we highly recommend spending the day exploring!
