Luxury

St. Augustine, one of the oldest settlements in the United States, hosts beautiful beaches, historic landmarks, and access to some of the freshest catches from the Atlantic Ocean. The next time you take a vacation in Florida, consider stopping by historic St. Augustine for some of the best fine-dining seafood restaurants on the East Coast.

St. Augustine is rich in history, and in the late 1800s, "rich" was the operative word. It was a grand time of magnates, marvels and magnificent monuments... theatrical resorts, lavish architecture and conspicuous luxury. Once a sparsely inhabited near-wilderness, the little town burgeoned as a premier resort destination for well-to-do northerners. It all began in 1883 with an auspicious visit by Henry Morrison Flagler.

Set a breezy late-afternoon picnic and stay until sundown. Then get dapper for jazz and cocktails. St. Augustine’s historical glamour is worth dressing up for.
