This is one of the best beaches because it is super family-friendly, and they have lifeguards on duty, so you’ll always have extra eyes on your kiddos.
We also love to visit Vilano Beach on our family vacation because it is a little less crowded than St. Augustine Beach. They both have free parking areas.
Fishing is one of the best free things to do in St. Augustine during the day that is free at both the Vilano Beach and St. Augustine Beach piers but keep in mind you will need a fishing license.
