St. Augustine, Florida, a city with Catholic roots, now celebrates a diverse history through its Spanish-style architecture and theme parks.
The first European settlement in what is now the continental United States, St. Augustine has been frequented by wealthy travelers since the 19th century. Fine hotels, restaurant, elaborate churches and sunshine greet them.
Challenge a reptile to a wrestling match at Alligator Farm, take a sip from the Fountain of Youth and test your faith at Ripley’s Believe it or Not! Museum. Hop in a boat or kayak for the St. Augustine Eco Tour, which travels through rivers and streams to find dolphins, birds and other wildlife. Spend some time sunning on one of the city’s many beaches, but don’t forget the sunblock!
