Hello history buffs...St George Street in the historic district was super busy for the holiday weekend but still had a fun time seeing all the landmarks in oldest city in America. This city is surely a Yelpers dream and loved finding historic gems to Yelp. read more

I've been to St. Augustine about 3 or 4 times and as a matter of fact I believe it was while I was in St Augustine attending a friends wedding was when I first started Yelping and received my very first Elite Badge. A little brief history on St Augustine. It was founded in 1565 by Spanish admiral Pedro Menéndez de Avilés, and is the oldest continuously inhabited European-established settlement in the contiguous United States. It's known as the "Ancient City," and serves as the county seat of St. Johns County and is famous for its Spanish colonial architecture and rich history. Some of the highlights to see and do are the Castillo de San Marcos a 17th-century Spanish stone fortress that defended the city for centuries and now serves as a major national monument. And if it's shopping you're looking for then the St. George Street area is for you. A pedestrian-only thoroughfare in the historic district featuring over 30 historic houses, shops, and restaurants. And your trip isn't complete until you do the "Nights of Lights" A world-renowned holiday display where the city is illuminated by millions of white lights. Note: this is only during the Christmas holiday season and a few weeks after. I didn't have enough time to see it but the famous St. Augustine light house is something to see. But those steps will test your physical fitness. lol And for all you photogs. Some of the most beautiful Spanish architecture I've seen. You'll wear that shutter button out. Very popular city but packed in the summer so plan accordingly. read more

We stayed overnight in St. Augustine as our stop between NC and Ft. Lauderdale. We've always wanted to see this beautiful city and this was our only opportunity to do so. We were satisfied with spending one full day here and this is what we did (for anyone doing a stopover). The historic district is a must! There's plenty of shopping and you can easily spend a few hours walking down St George Street. We took a quick look at the Cathedral Basilica of St. Augustine and were able to briefly tour the inside. We also visited the Medieval Torture Museum which was fun (but not a must-do). We ate at Casa Reina for dinner which is highly recommended! When the sun went down, we took our dog for a drive to see Night of Lights which was fantastic! There is plenty of parking throughout the city but do be prepared to pay. St. Augustine is fun for a quick day trip or even a short weekend trip but I can't imagine spending a full week here. It's beautiful and relaxing but once you go, I don't see the need to go back. read more

For work, I stayed in Jacksonville for 26 nights and was told I had to make a trip to St Augustine. Since I kept saying I wanted to see a alligator since that seemed a must when visiting Florida, my coworker said she'd drive up to St Augustine Alligator Farm which turned into one of the highlights of my work trip. As well as the next weekend going to the Capybara Cafe! How cute are they?! A little more friendly to pet than Wiggles the gator at the alligator farm. Haha. Whether you are here for some of the delicious eateries or the animals, I am sure you will find something you enjoy in the oldest continuously inhabited city in the USA. read more

I have been to St Augustine once and it was a nice visit. It is a charming city with lots of history. I remember eating at a pizza place here that so many people love. The line was huge and the pizza was just ok. People also rave about this town/city. I liked it but wouldn't say I love it. I was here for.one day and that was enough I think. I am not big on history. I am more of an eater, a drinker and a shopper. They have some nice restaurants here. I also did a rum tasting. St. Augustin is charming and it took me way too long to get here considering I have lived in Florida almost my whole life. I would say it is a place worth seeing. read more

I can't even imagine saying anything more positive about this place than previous reviews. It's all true. Additionally, my partner has said many times that the city of Saint Augustine has its act together. HISTORY. ARCHITECTURE. BEAUTY. Been here 2 weeks. Not only do you find the best American food, including southern and seafood but you find great worldwide cuisine. A Foodie Paradise. Don't miss it if you get a chance. read more

This city is wow city. Its the oldest European-established city in the continental US and it's on the Atlantic Coast so imagine the view, weather and rainbow that we were lucky enough to catch it and you can see in my pictures and videos. This city specially its old town has gorgeous Spanish architecture and buildings with cobblestone streets, and the Castillo de San Marcos near by... Full of restaurants and beautiful walking. The weather was so cool even though in the morning was so hot but when we arrived was chill. Parking in old town was tricky and we ended up to pay...For-sure try to catch sunset or sunrise...This city is the most famous city in Florida...Its very old but rich in history... read more

I had an opportunity to remove another item off of my bucket list when a friend invited me to visit St. Augustine, Florida. It was founded by Spanish explorers in 1565 and is the oldest continuously occupied city in the continental United States. We walked around the historic old town district of the city all day. There are some beautiful churches in the area ( I love Church architecture ) and many stores , art galleries , restaurants and places of interest to see in the historic district. One of the points of interest is the fort that in time of war aided in the defense of the city. Castillo de San Marcos ( Fort San Marcos ) sits at the water's edge. The fort is equipped with cannons , no longer in use , that afforded protection against invaders and pirates. The fort is hundreds of years old and built with a unique form of coquina masonry ( coquina = sea shell stone ) and is still in remarkably good condition today. There is an atrium where defenders could gather within the fort. Normally the fort was not occupied but only used to store ammo and weapons of war to be used if the city came under attack. At that point the fort was temporarily occupied with defenders. The area came under British control at one point as Spain and Britain fought over trade routes in the Caribbean , but the area was later reclaimed by the Spanish , after 21 years of British occupation. There is a lot of history in St. Augustine, too much to discuss here , but a worthy destination if you are a student of history. read more

The city of St. Augustine is packed with history, from colonial architecture to cobblestone streets that really make you feel like you're stepping back in time. It's one of the oldest Spanish settlements still standing. Growing up in Florida, we got to learn some of the history in school before going on a field trip around 4th or 5th grade. As an adult, I come back here once in a while to enjoy the sites along with shopping and eating at the old English pub around here. read more

We were overjoyed at being able to do a 315 mile road trip to the city of St Augustine for Christmas time to see the Nights of Lights by trolley, in our car, on a water boat tour, and some walking. It was fascinating, educational and absolutely a lot of fun! St. Augustine is the oldest city in the United States. We stayed in St Augustine Beach on the beach to have the best of both worlds. It was a short drive to historic downtown St Augustine. Once there, we parked our car and hopped on the Old Town Trolley and were swept away to all the important sights to see. We had a great time and enjoyed some wonderful restaurants, museums, exhibits, shops, parks, forts, buildings, neighborhoods, and boat cruises in St Augustine. There is so much to do from early in the morning til late at night. The people we met along the way were very nice and friendly, locals and tourists. St Augustine is very dog friendly, which is awesome for so many travelers. Do yourself a favor and come see this beautiful city with so many treasures to share with you. It is a casual city so bring your most comfortable shoes. read more

My favorite place to go I love the city life the shops the restaurants and more . So much to do see and eat

May 2025 One of my favorite places to go especially during the Christmas season. I use to work in the historic district and come here every day. Seeing St Augustine again was like a little dream. We went to the town square & South of Philly for cheesesteak sandwiches. We went to the little shops and walked by the oldest mapped street in the United States. Definitely a go see city and the oldest city in the nation. I recommend parking in the parking garage when visiting the city during tourist season. Parking is scarce and it is worth it to pay for parking at the parking garage. read more

Historical with Beautiful Buildings!!! There are things to do for the whole family from wineries, distilleries, restaurants, tours, shops, and more! The oldest city in America is very beautiful! Highly recommend to anyone! read more

I've been to alot of great cites across the United States, but this is my favorite thus far. It has more charm than any place I've ever been. The historic area is packed with history and takes you back to another time. It's a very vibey city with tons of cool art and places to shop. Plus it being on the water doesn't hurt its appeal either. I have went to a bunch of restaurants and breweries here and I'll say they were all amazing. Ann O'Malley's is probably my favorite because everyone there is always so nice and friendly, especially the bartenders. The Castillo de San Marcos fort is absolutely a wonderful place to tour or a great place to grab some food and sit on the lawn and watch the boats in the water. The Bridge Of Lions is also beautiful and I really enjoy watching the boats come through it when it rises to let them through. There is so much to see and do here. I could probably write a book about it. Let's just say if you're looking for a city to visit that is warm and beautiful and the vibes are great, this is the place you wanna visit. All I ever see when I am here is people smiling and happy. No drama or bs, ever! Enjoy it for the great city it is :) read more

We had a wonderful weekend visiting St. Augustine. Known to be the oldest city in the United States and for its Spanish colonial architecture. Ponce de Leon discovered St. Augustine in 1513. The Castillo de San Marcos is a 17th century Spanish stone fortress with views of the St. Augustine inlet. The charming brick-lined streets and historic landmarks offer a wealth of interesting historical stories from a city founded in 1565. It is a small walking city with many restaurants and shops. The nights are lit up with white lights. The beach area offers 40 miles of coastline. The beach is about 5 miles from the historic district. The St. Augustine Lighthouse is also worth visiting. So much to see and so little time. read more

St. Augustine, Florida is an absolute gem - the oldest continuously occupied European settlement in the continental United States dating back to 1565. You can feel the rich history as you stroll along the brick streets lined with Spanish colonial architecture and sites like the Castillo de San Marcos. There is so much to see and do packed into the compact downtown area. You can pick up a map from the Visitor's Center to plan for your day. There is a hop-on hop-off trolley tour was perfect for getting an overview of the key sights like the Fort, Flagler College, Cathedral Basilica, and more. You can hop off at any stop that interests you. The dining options are fabulous with everything from upscale Spanish cuisine to casual food shacks. There's plenty of souvenir shops and candy stores to satisfy your sweet tooth. A couple tips - get there very early if visiting on the weekend or during an event! We went during the Florida Man games (should've checked online prior to visit) and had a hard time finding parking. The streets can also get quite crowded. But it's absolutely worth braving the masses to experience this vibrant piece of living history. I haven't seen everything in the city yet, so I'm looking forward to going back and plan my visit better! PS - I also promise to take more pics next time. I was really immersed in the moment during my visit read more

St Augustine is the oldest continuously occupied city in the western hemisphere, dating to 1565. It has existed under Spanish and British control. There is a lot of history crammed into this city. The city's modern era blossomed when Henry Flagler (J D Rockefeller's business partner) recognized the opportunity to lure winter -weather-weary folks from NYC to his hotels in Florida. His original hotel in St Augustine was the Ponce de Loen Hotel which survives today as Ponce de Leon Hall at Flagler College. The city is rich with history and includes a few original structures with many historic reconstructions The are also a number of restaurants both in and outside the historic area.

There are not many cities/towns in Florida that get an enthusiastic thumbs-up from me. Maybe Tampa but not much else; or at least I can say this for those places in Florida to which I've actually been (a couple of dozen on that list). But I can now say that I've found another place in Florida that I would deem a nice place to spend some time. St. Augustine offers historical exploration and ambiance along with a pleasant shopping and dining scene that allows it to stand out among other Florida locales. I would not quite put it up there with Charleston or Savannah but it's in the same general class of quality in terms of visitor experience. Begin your visit at the St. Augustine and St. John's County Visitor Center. It's a great place to get oriented. But the appeal of St. Augustine really starts with the rich historical foundation of the town that dates back over four-and-a-half centuries to Spanish exploration of the New World. That is best represented by the Castillo de San Marcos, the fort built by the Spanish when they ruled the area. Administered by the National Park Service, this wonderful site is worth a visit in order to explore the European roots of the city. The displays are informative without being overwhelming. And you get a good view of the surroundings from the cannon deck. The Pirate Museum is kitschy and informative at the same time. There are actual artifacts on display. It's a place you can learn something and is great for the kids, particularly the older children. There are quite a few other historical sites that sound interesting and we hope to visit these our next time there. Places like the Old Florida Museum, the Oldest Jail, the Peña-Peck House, the Lightner Museum and the Villa Zorayda Museum, to name a few, are on our list. There's plenty to do in the area. St. George St. is the vintage passage where the interesting shops and food opportunities can be found. In addition to the ambiance, there are gift shops, craft shops, coffee shops and restaurants. St. Augustine Coffee Company is a good stop for coffee and a treat. For the adults, the St. Augustine Distillery offers free tastings of whiskey and moonshine while the San Sebastian Winery on King St. offers free wine tasting. While people usually think of beaches and Disney when considering a trip to Florida, it's worth considering the addition of St. Augustine to your itinerary. There is no other city in Florida so infused with history. And most importantly, you'll have fun with your visit. read more

I visited the city of St. Augustine for a second time on Christmas Eve, 2023. This visit was just as magical as last year! The temperature was warmer this trip so it made walking around easier but due to it being a holiday we found many places closed or totally filled up which resulted in long wait times. There is so much exploring to do! So much history to see. We were walking down a cobblestone street when the carriage horse rides went by. The horses were beautiful and all the riders were enjoying themselves. The clippety-clop of their hooves on the cobblestones transported me back in time. I love St. Augustine! read more

This city knows exactly what they're doing. We were here for the July 4 weekend and it could not have been organized any better. They had proper barricades with just the right amount of security. Their fireworks display of 20 minutes was outstanding. I like the center court area where there's a little park and they frequently have live bands playing there. The streets where all the shops and restaurants are are clean and everything is laid out nicely. This city knows what they're doing! read more

City of St Augustine - Landmarks & Historical Buildings Near Me - Saint Augustine, Florida

I first visited Saint Augustine before I moved to Jacksonville. I was on vacation in Jacksonville and heard wonderful things about the oldest city in the US and wanted to check it out for myself. My last visit was New Year's Day 2021 with my niece as we wanted to check out the Nights of Lights. I didn't realize the week between Christmas and New Year's was the busiest time of year for tourism. I probably won't go back during this time of year again lol. It was too crowded for me even if we weren't in the middle of a pandemic. There are so many things to check out in St Augustine. Plus they have many lovely bed and breakfasts for lodging. I have stayed in two and loved both. Staying in a bed-and-breakfast gives you walking access to everything as parking can be a challenge. I typically park at the Visitor Center parking garage but during peak season it can get full. Tip: O.C. Whites offers free parking in their private lot IF you are eating in the restaurant. Some of my favorite attractions include the Castillo de San Marcos which is the oldest masonry fort in the US. They shoot cannons in the afternoon from the top of the fort. My absolute favorite attraction in St Augustine is Our Lady de la Leche Shrine at Mission Nombre de Dios which is surrounded by a very old cemetery. I know what you're thinking, a cemetery? This is one of the most peaceful and beautiful places I have visited on earth. I am Christian not Catholic but have gone to the mission on several occasions when contemplating life decisions. I light a candle then sit down on a bench and pray. Even if you are not a spiritual person I would still advise you to check this out. Pizza Time is an award-winning restaurant that has the best margarita pizza ever! But be sure you have cash if they do not accept credit cards. They do have an ATM on site. And be prepared to possibly wait in a line that goes outside the door. The Oldest Wooden Schoolhouse is another must-see attraction. And a few of my favorite watering holes and restaurants include Meehan's Irish Pub, O.C. White's, Stogies Cigar Bar and Ancient City Brewing Co. You will not be disappointed on your visit to St Augustine! And if you get a chance take a ghost tour. You will learn some pretty interesting historical facts that you will not learn on a trolley tour. read more

I have long wanted to visit this historical town and finally had the chance for a few hours over the holidays and can't wait for our next return. This is one of those few locations in America that boast European vibes with idyllic carless streets, amazing architecture and history. From the Spanish cathedral to the fun and diverse food scene, St.Augustine is my kind of town. Oh, and did I mention this little oasis is all located on the coast? The only drawn back is the crowds- I wouldn't recommend visiting over the Christmas holiday. My next visit will be during the low season. There are multiple historic landmarks located in this town along with a variety of historic tours to learn deeper about one of America's oldest towns. Last but not least, do not leave town without feasting at the charming The Floridian restaurant. Order a drink It's worth the wait! read more

Decided to have a small town Christmas with my daughter in Saint Augustine. Nights of lLights so beautiful!. Definitely got our steps in because driving and parking are not so easy. The place was packed yet all the people that were like us wanting to come for Christmas finding places to eat not so easy I believe if they're going to have so many tourist come for the beautiful lights, that maybe they should have more places open Christmas Eve and Christmas Day or at least let us know ahead of time that the town closes down. We did OK because we stayed at a great hotel that had a restaurant. We would've liked to stay in town for meals and shopping, but that wasn't gonna happen so not so tourist friendly but I guess it's good that the employees got to have off for Christmas Eve and Christmas. I would've chosen a different time if I knew that everything was going to be closed. And talking to others at hotel I wasn't alone. read more

I love it here and we visit at least 3 times a year! There is so much to see and do that you have to visit more than once! The history is so extensive in this city and so interesting. I learn something new each time I visit. This city is rather large but I usually stick to the historical district. Our first trip was back in 2015 when I surprised my husband for his birthday. Neither of us have been here but were both very intrigued and eager to see all the history. After all these years, we still have not completed our St. Augustine bucket list! In my opinion, there are some things you must do when visiting. The distillery and winery are fun and free. Walking around and finding all the landmark houses is cool and reading the plaques of their history is interesting. The fort is definitely something to see and we have yet to visit! The Lightner Museum is awesome and you can have lunch at Cafe Alcazar, which is located in what used to be the pool for when it was a hotel back in the day. There are also all sorts of walking tours and we have not tried them because we walk on our own. There are all sorts of events that happen annually. The Nights of Lights is during Christmas time, where the city is decorated in lights. There is a seafood festival, Celtic festival, etc. my only gripe over the years is it has become overcrowded with children. In my opinion, it is not appropriate for children, like Vegas, because the city is not geared towards children. It's just my opinion and I know I would hate learning about history when on vacation from school lol. read more

My husband has family in the area that we have to visit once in a while, so going to St. Augustine each time we're in the area is a must do thing for me, to keep me sane. The downtown area is very cute and charming with Spanish moss coming down near colorful houses, with cobblestone streets, cute stores, the old fort, nice restaurants. I love roaming around the streets full of history (this is a Spanish settlement and supposed to be the oldest town in US), browse the stores, shop, try local restaurants and bakeries. Sure, there are tourist trap kinda of stores, but also unique, nice shops where you can get things of great quality. The Castillo de San Marcos is nice to visit, right in the heart of the Historic District, there are various tours you can take (some they have carriages for). Saint George street is very cute and charming, with street performers around (they're trying to have less of them, too bad since they add local color), nice shops and restaurants. The Bridge of Lions is nice, Flagler College is worth checking out, the building is beautiful. Casa Monica Hotel is worth poking inside even if you're not a guest at the hotel, its Moorish architectural style is unique for the area. The Spanish Bakery is a hit for me, always great for lunch, The Bunnery is great for breakfast, lunch or anytime dessert. The pirate theme is popular and yes, there are some cheesy attractions as well. And also cute bed and breakfasts, cool bars and unique stores. The downtown is nicely decorated for X-mas. Great spot for a day trip or a weekend getaway! read more

Have been to St. Augustine several times, not in the last ten years however, so was absolutely appalled by how commercial and money grabbing everything has become. We ate out at least 7 times in the five day we were here, including Columbia Restaurant, Fish Camp, Lobster Roll, etc. and every single place was awful - overpriced, dreadful food. Best meal we had was lovely lunch salads at a place called Mary's across from the Lion Bridge. The Old Town Trolley is horrendously expensive now, and we were flooded in our seats when it rained, literally sitting in pools of water. The Black Raven Pirate ship was dreadful, no pirates, just some fruitcake screeching in a falsetto voice and reminding us he wanted tips. On and on, even the "farmers" market Wednesday morning is nothing but cheap trinkets and overpriced nonsense --- where's the farmer part???? Was ONE fruit and veggie stand. Used to love this city, not ever planning to go back after this last trip. We did rent a cute bungalow in the old town, walking around seeing the homes and small parks was about the highlight of our stay. Expensive, but glad we didn't stay in some tourist trap of a hotel or motel. read more

St Augustine is a beautiful historic landmark city boasting claim as the oldest city in the US. The strong Spanish influence is evident in the architecture. The city has done an amazing job of harnessing tourism to help stimulate the local economy and ensure that the buildings are maintained for years to come. So what to do on your trip. If walking is an option, walk down town. Parking can be found for $15 a day, or metered $2.50 hour or you park across the bridge of Lions for free and walk. The walk over the ancient draw bridge is spectacular. It's about a quarter mile long with a nice sidewalk. The Castillo de San Marcos can be seen on the north side. There is an entrance fee to enter but you can walk around the fort for no charge. This is a must do. Fabulous. Across from the fort is the main visito center. Go there to see exhibits, get information and use the restrooms. Then take a stroll through the old town. Lots of historic buildings, shrines, restaurants, statues, shopping, etc. it gets crowded in the late morning so get there early. I love all the independent shops. A couple nice coffee shops to rest your feet. Then walk over to the marina and see the boats and perhaps take a boat tour to see the harbor. In the evening the city is alive with holiday lights and music. There is a great festive atmosphere. Plan a whole day or take the tram for $28/person and get a guided tour. So much to see and do. Magical. read more

Very interesting city, mainly due to the historical significance. Stop and take the time to visit the old historic district, but be ready for the crowds and the tourism. Still worth the stop. read more

The oldest city in the United States. There is so much history here that you can't help but get caught up in it. From the oldest street to the oldest wooden schoolhouse to the oldest house you can't avoid the rich past of this amazing city. Mixed in with the old you will be sure to find new businesses to shop and eat at. It is nice to be able to park and the just spend the day walking in the historic district. Yes, parking and traffic can be crazy. I guess the word is out on what a great destination Saint Augustine is. I would recommend staying a weekend at one of the many excellent B&B's that can be found here. Another tip would be to avoid the hot summer months when the temperature and humidity soars (but I guess the summer evenings are pretty nice too). The bottom line is that you don't want to miss out on the sights and sounds of this historic little city. read more

This was such a great place to visit! I'd compare it to a combination of Old Town San Diego mixed with Old Quebec in QC. I loved the architecture here! I recently visited St Augustine, Charleston and Savannah, I would say this is my favorite of the 3. I feel like there is enough to do for the weekend without it being overwhelming. We live close to 300 miles from here, so we opted to visit for 4 nights. There are lots of great places to stay near the historic downtown, but we found lodging close to the beach instead. I feel like we had the best of both worlds, we could experience the beautiful beaches and then the charming Saint George St. I liked the glimpses into the past on St. George. So many shops and a fair amount of eateries. We had our small dog with us on most of our trips to this street and we saw a lot of other pets as well. I would say this city is very dog friendly, but I'd suggest coming in "cooler" weather since it will be more enjoyable for a lot of walking. There is a plethora of historical things to do here! Lots of museums, estates, boat cruises and plenty of restaurants. Definitely get to the beach too if you can. read more

One my of favorite Florida cities. My husband has been raving about this City for a while since he's been on a work trip there. He wanted me to go check it out ASAP. Now I understood the hype. We went in August which was a steamy month to go but we had fun nonetheless. So much history and the houses were super historic. I love the small town vibe and there's a restaurant and bar in every corner. This city is definitely tourist friendly and there's so much to do. Nestled right by the ocean, a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the scenery. We went a a ghost tour which was awesome. The trolley rides were also super fun. You won't be bored! Also, an affordable city to stay in terms of hotel and amenities. I definitely recommend checking this city out! read more

Small charming city to visit with lots of history. There are plenty of things to do for a 2-3 day stay. Our favorites were taking the old town trolley tours, visiting Castillo San Marcos, visiting the our lady of leche chapel, walking and shopping along St George street, and going to the beach. During The holidays, there is so much Christmas cheer. I'd say it's definitely one the most Christmassy cities/towns of US. read more

I was so impressed with the beauty of this city that I had to extend my stay here. I arrived at night and saw the beautiful lights adorning the central part of the city.

The food is delicious and the historical sites are impressive. Day time and dinner time can get crowded with tourists and the typical trolley/train tours through the city. Highly recommend read more
