Overview

Let's go explore America’s oldest city and learn about the three different countries that controlled St. Augustine for most of the past 450 years. You will walk along our famous harbor and see the oldest masonry fort in America. Get to know the oldest grid system in our country, while walking the same streets as people like buccaneer Robert Searle, Henry Flagler, Theodore Roosevelt, Robert Frost and even Martin Luther King Jr did many years ago. We want you to get familiar with the city so you can go off and experience everything St. Augustine has to offer!
