St Augustine is a great place to live! It is like being on permanent vacation with so many things to do. Enjoy a walk down St. George Street in Historic downtown St Augustine, music lovers will find several venues for concerts and classical music, explore the waterways, visit the many state parks with so much history, or simply relax on the stunning, white sand beaches.

I have posted a map below of Historic downtown St Augustine to help you explore the area. In the left hand corner of the map is a drop down menu that will allow you to click on different things and the map will change to show you where that area is. There are also many website links with different interests for you to explore when visiting historic St. Augustine. Please remember if you are planning to come between late November and January, be sure to see the Night of Lights. For pictures and details, http://www.floridashistoriccoast.com/nights/.
