Things To Do
Castillo de San Marcos
The oldest masonry fort in the continental United States, the Castillo de San Marcos is a large Spanish stone fortress built to protect and defend Spain's claims in the New World. It's a National Monument and, at over 315 years old, it's the oldest structure in St. Augustine. It's also one of the main attractions in St. Augustine.
Lightner Museum
The Lightner Museum is a museum of antiquities, mostly American Gilded Age pieces, housed within the historic Hotel Alcazar building in downtown St. Augustine. This 1887 Spanish Renaissance Revival style building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Saint George Street
St. George Street in St. Augustine is a thoroughfare, pedestrian-only street lined with restaurants, shops, attractions, and immersed in history. (This street is also right next to the wedding venue!)
Alligator Farm
The St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park is one of Florida's oldest continuously running attractions, having opened on May 20, 1893. Not only does it have 24 species of crocodilians, but also a variety of other reptiles, mammals and birds, as well as exhibits, animal performances and educational demonstrations.
St. Johns Ocean Pier
The St. Johns County Ocean Pier offers activities on the beach as well as daily passes to visit and fish on the pier itself.
Anastasia State Park
Anastasia State Park is a 1,600-acre state park in Florida, United States. This park has a variety of wildlife, birds and plants in a setting of beaches, tidal salt marsh, and marine and upland hammock.
