Things To Do

Saint Augustine Distillery

This distillery gives free tours and free tastings of spirits ranging from vodka to whiskey. Their house bar, The Ice Plant, is a reference to the fact that the building was historically just that, and the drinks are made with crystal-clear ice, crafted in house for specific cocktails.

Hong Kong Café

We know, it looks deceiving on the outside, but inside is some of the best dim sum we've ever experienced. (Check out the seasonal green with garlic or the baked seafood with cheese. Honestly, you can't go wrong!)

Castillo de San Marcos

This castle dates back to the colonial Spanish period. Today it's part of the National Park Service, and is a great place for a picnic.

St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park

Gators. Zip lines. Your own Instagrammable Florida Man story!

Vilano Beach

Cousteau's Waffle and Milkshake Bar

A waffle and milkshake shop full of references to Wes Anderson's Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. What's not to love?

Columbia Restaurant

We love dining in the courtyard room. Try the paella, the sangria, and the hearts-of-palm salad.
