The Journey
Castillo de San Marcos
Step back in time at the Castillo de San Marcos, the oldest masonry fort in the continental United States. Built by the Spanish in 1672, this imposing fortress stands as a testament to St. Augustine's enduring history. Explore its coquina stone walls, which have withstood centuries of attacks and weathered countless storms. Wander through its chambers and imagine the lives of the soldiers who defended this strategic outpost against pirates, British invaders, and other threats. From its ramparts, take in breathtaking views of the Matanzas River and the Atlantic Ocean. A visit to the Castillo de San Marcos is a journey into the heart of colonial America, where you can feel the echoes of battles fought and victories won.
Plaza de la Constitución
Discover the heartbeat of historic St. Augustine at the Plaza de la Constitución, the oldest public square in the United States. Since 1573, this vibrant plaza has been the center of community life, witnessing pivotal moments in American history, from Spanish colonial rule to civil rights protests. Stroll beneath the shade of ancient oak trees draped with Spanish moss and admire the surrounding colonial architecture. Attend local events, admire the monuments, and soak up the lively atmosphere that makes this plaza a must-see destination. The Plaza de la Constitución is more than just a square; it's a living testament to the enduring spirit of St. Augustine.
Matanzas River
Journey back to the age of pirates and naval battles along the Matanzas River, a vital waterway that once served as a gateway and battleground for St. Augustine. Imagine infamous pirates like Sir Francis Drake and Robert Searles prowling these waters, lured by Spanish treasure ships and the city's strategic port. Picture hidden coves and twisting inlets providing refuge for pirate ships, while the mighty Castillo de San Marcos defended the city from attack. Today, take a scenic boat tour or kayak along the calm waters and listen to the river whisper tales of gold, gunpowder, and daring escapades that shaped St. Augustine's swashbuckling past. Keep an eye out for dolphins and other marine life that now call these historic waters home.
St. George Street
Immerse yourself in the charm and vibrancy of St. George Street, the pedestrian-only heart of historic St. Augustine. Wander through a delightful array of boutiques, art galleries, restaurants, and cafes, all housed within beautifully preserved centuries-old buildings. Once a colonial thoroughfare, St. George Street now invites you to stroll through history, offering a unique blend of culture, cuisine, and local treasures. Discover handcrafted souvenirs, sample delicious local fare, and soak up the lively atmosphere.
