Guests of Florida Coast Beach Rentals are perfectly positioned to experience the beauty and history of Northeast Florida. At the center of it all is St. Augustine, the nation’s oldest city, filled with cobblestone streets, centuries-old architecture, and vibrant attractions. From there, the coast stretches north to Ponte Vedra and Vilano, where beaches and natural spaces provide a peaceful balance to the historic charm.
St. Augustine is the heart of the area’s attractions. Visitors can tour the iconic Castillo de San Marcos, stroll down St. George Street, or explore museums and historic landmarks that bring the city’s story to life. Carriage rides, ghost tours, and seasonal festivals add energy and entertainment for every type of traveler.
Shoppers and food lovers also find plenty to explore in the historic district, where boutique stores and unique dining experiences line the streets. This blend of history, culture, and activity makes St. Augustine a must for every guest.
Just north of St. Augustine, Ponte Vedra and South Ponte Vedra offer quiet stretches of sand and outdoor recreation. Visitors can enjoy long beach walks, collect seashells, or relax with fewer crowds. The Guana Tolomato Matanzas Reserve is a highlight, with hiking trails, wildlife viewing, and kayaking through unspoiled landscapes.
Ponte Vedra also provides family-friendly parks and cultural events throughout the year, giving guests a chance to enjoy the community beyond the shoreline.
Vilano Beach combines convenience with character. Located just minutes from downtown St. Augustine, it is easy to visit both the beach and the city in one trip. Visitors can enjoy fishing from the pier, grabbing a meal at waterfront restaurants, or simply watching the sunrise. Vilano’s small-town atmosphere makes it a favorite for those who want a slower pace without missing access to St. Augustine.
