St Augustine has over 35 antique shops and 20 art galleries throughout the city offering everything from original creations by local artisans to valuable heirlooms. St Augustine accommodation ranges from bed and breakfast in quaint historic lodgings, hotels and inns, vacation rental properties, condominiums, townhouses and campground facilities. Just across the Bridge of Lions is St. Augustine Beach (Anastasia Island), a popular beach front destination for locals and visitors alike to access the city's 24 miles (38 km) of lovely beaches. Ponte Vedra Beach to the north of St. Augustine is one of Florida's more up market destinations and the location for several resorts offering prestigious world class golf and tennis facilities. Getting There & Getting Around Visitors to St Augustine can arrive via either Jacksonville's international airport, about an hours drive to the north, or via the Daytona Beach airport, about an hour's drive south. Services are more frequent, and fares usually lower, at Jacksonville. Amtrak train services terminate at Jacksonville. On-street parking is nonexistent in St. Augustine's historic district, and metered parking lots elsewhere are difficult to find and are often full. Your best bet is to park in the large lots behind the visitor center on Castillo Drive. Open airs buses, trains and horse drawn carriages service the historical districts and city highlights. The Sunshine Bus Company runs public bus routes Monday through Saturday to 7pm. Yellow Cabs provide taxi services throughout the city. There are outlets in the city for the hire of bicycles, mopeds and scooters.
