Intetsting things to do in st augustine fla?

Question

My family is going to st augustine and we have been there before and seen Ripley's believe it or not and ridden the trolley through a tour of st augustine. We are wondering are there any other attractions you would suggest for a family to do in st Augustine?

Answer 1

Walk out on the Fort.  We were there on the  Fourth of July and watched the fireworks from the Fort.  It was absolutely spectacular.  The next day we drove down a little ways on old narrow highway A1A.  We found JOHN'S OLD CHICAGO SPEAKEASY TAVERN, which is right on the beach.  The kids drank soda pop and we sipped cold tap beer from frosted mugs while sitting on the porch, watching the waves come in.  It was like something right out of a Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall movie.   I wonder if old John is still alive.  

You can also rent surfboards in St Augustine and learn to surf.  

Answer 2

St. Augustine Alligator Farm, Ponce de Leon's Fountain of Youth, Colonial Spanish Quarter (is a living history museum), the many beaches are fun, Old St. Augustine village, plus there are helicopter rides and parasailing, segway tours, and ghost tours. Plenty of fun for everyone.  

Answer 3

Oh my, yes, there are lots more things to do. The Castillo de San Marcos, the Alligator Farm, the Scenic Cruise and Lightner Museum are at the top of my list. If you are ambitious you can climb to the top of the lighthouse. Or maybe visit Anastasia State Park where you can hike, rent a kayak and spend the afternoon out on the water, or maybe relax on the beach .

The Colonial Spanish Quarter and Potters Wax Museum are interesting and fun, also.

Be sure to stop in at the Spanish Bakery on St. George Street for a cinnamon roll or a homemade loaf of bread.

I hope you have a wonderful visit to our community.
