On Anastasia Island just south of historic St. Augustine, the city of St. Augustine Beach offers a relaxed seaside setting along A1A. The St. Johns County Ocean Pier anchors a beachfront park with a splash pad and pavilions, while Anastasia State Park protects dunes, a tidal lagoon and campsites to the north. Local restaurants and shops line A1A Beach Boulevard. Homes include beach cottages, oceanfront condominiums and townhomes.
