When we think of a tropical vacation to St. Augustine, we tend to first picture ourselves laying on the beach all day, languishing in the warmth of the Florida sunshine and softness of the sand on the beach while listening to the crashing waves and feeling the salt-tinged breezes coming from the sea. It looks and sounds perfect, but after a while, you’ll want to switch up your vacation routine! The solution? Check out some of St. Augustine’s greatest attractions near our St. Augustine condo rentals. We’ve listed a few below for you!
Fountain of Youth Discovery Park
According to legend, the site of this park is where famous explorer Ponce de Leon arrived in 1513 on his quest to find water with the power to grant everlasting youth: the Fountain of Youth. Whether that is fact or fiction, you’ll enjoy the pretty and romantic natural scenery, as well as learning about the colonialists and Native Americans who lived here in the village Seloy.
Anastasia State Park
This wildlife refuge contains five miles of serene, sandy beaches, as well as the quarry from which coquina rock (formed from shells) was mined to build the Castillo de San Marcos. You’ll see a diverse range of bird species here as well!
