Easily one of the most popular restaurants in downtown St. Augustine, with a beautiful, lush outdoor patio seating area. Live music at times. Cuisine is New Orleans- seafood/cajun style but they also offer other traditional items, steaks, pasta, etc. Kid-friendly. They do not take reservations. Great jumping off point for touring the historic downtown or cooling your heels after a fun day of sightseeing. The building dates back to Spanish colonial times, and is reputed to be haunted on the second floor!

Don't let the name fool you- its a bakery but also a great breakfast and lunch spot. It's our favorite breakfast spot, and is walking distance from our boat- simply follow your way back to the Camachee strip mall, and go down to the corner near the Camachee motel. Hearty egg breakfasts, a wonderful breakfast grits bowl with crumbled bacon, gouda cheese and an egg, giant fresh-baked biscuits, and pancakes. Oh, and 3 varieties of fresh-brewed barista style coffee. Pretty sure everything is homemade by the chef/owner Sebastian.

Hole-in-the-wall walk-up sandwich shop on San Marco, that all the locals go to for their sandwich fix. Large sandwiches, my favorite is the classic Reuben.

Located on Aviles Street, one of the oldest, prettiest streets in America, this small indoor/outdoor trattoria offers great Italian cuisine, and a fine selection of wines. A little pricey but not a budget buster.

Parks & Nature

This is the Spanish fort that dominates dominates downtown St. Augustine, and is one of the most popular tourist sites. Owned/operated by the National Park Service- if you already have a US National park pass, bring it along, because you'll get in free.

One of the oldest Lighthouses in America, and fully-restored, complete with a museum of St. Augustine's maritime history. This not-for-profit also conducts archealogical research into the area's maritime heritage by conducting dive wreck searches, and construction of famous replica boats. Climb the 200+ stairs to the top of the lighthouse, if you're in shape!

Arts & Culture

It may sound hokey, like a Johnny Depp-Disney movie, but this museum offers pirate history and amazing artifacts for the whole family to enjoy. It's owned by the former owner of the Philadelphia 76er's (Croce) who is a pirate enthusiast.

More than just the fabled Fountain of Youth, this is a large archealogical park at the site of where the Spanish built their settlement. Remnants of the first buildings' foundations can still be seen. There are many sites of interest inside the park, many of which are manned by re-enactors demonstrating blacksmithing, cannon firing, musket firing, and shipbuilding.

Sightseeing

Visit St. Augustine's Old Jail which was closed in the early 1950's. It was originally located near what today is Flagler College, but Henry Flagler ordered it relocated to its present location. Because he could. This is a guided tour by re-enactor jail guards- very entertaining, and not a little bit jarring to the senses. Crime definitely did NOT pay in St. Augustine!

Originally built by Henry Flagler as the exclusive Ponce de Leon Hotel in 1988 for the rich, the main Flagler College building is a great example of St. Augustine architecture. The student dining room is ringed with original Louis Tiffany glass panels. In fact, Flagler houses the world's larger collection of Tiffany glass and was featured on "Antiques Roadshow".
