Must do guide for cruisers
St Augustine
St Augustine The City was Founded by Pedro Menéndez de Avilés in 1565. It has had a history of being protected from harsh hurricane damage but occasionally floods. As a cruiser there is a range of comfort habits around, You can choose the secluded anchoring, downtown mooring balls, or choose a marina. St Augustine is great for free family fun, excellent food, shopping, historic entertainment and beautiful scenery. The small brick roads, horse carriages, and the Castillo de San Marcos is the oldest masonry fort in the continental United States.
A personal favorite site in State Augustine is a seasonal fog that happens in October- December time. Dinghy rides through the anchorage and walking around the fort in heavy fog is amazing. The holiday season is filled with spirit and there is loads of things to see.
