St. Augustine, Florida is located between Jacksonville and Ponte Vedra Beach to the north and Daytona Beach to the south. More than 42 miles of barrier coastline and a delightful, enthralling city filled to the brim with remnants of history, beckons both residents and tourists alike to this region. Founded in 1565 by a Spanish admiral, and the oldest continually inhabited city in all of the U.S., the buildings, streets, monuments, art, and architecture reflect its deep Spanish roots. Nicknamed “Ancient City” or “Old City,” one of the oldest structures that makes up the central part of St. Augustine dates back to its beginning, The Cathedral Basilica of Saint Augustine. The Lightner Museum and Hotel Ponce de Leon now Flagler College came later, but all these places provide a striking representation of the Spanish Renaissance Revival style and are included in the National Registry of Historic Places. St. Augustine Lighthouse is also another historic landmark that locals and tourists appreciate. People come as tourists to immerse themselves in the city’s beauty and intriguing history, and they stay for its affordability, slightly more temperate weather, and the outdoor, waterfront lifestyle. A hurricane has only touched down once in its modern history.
