No St. Augustine beach vacation is complete without sailing out on the ocean. Bay Ray Boat Rentals offers reasonably priced charters and Jet Ski, boat and kayak rentals. Whether you're an angler or not, taking a sail on a Bay Ray fishing charter through the inlet and out onto the ocean offers you a unique perspective of the old city. The beach has numerous charters that dock at the marina or that leave out of other St. Augustine beach docks or waterfront hotels.
Beachfront hotels, villas, condos, rental properties and even campgrounds can accommodate any style of trip. Soaking up the sun and enjoying spacious beaches is as easy as walking out the front door!
If you're looking for camping, look no further than Anastasia State Park. This 1,600-acre park boasts over four miles of unspoiled, white sandy beaches, tidal salt marshes and hammock preserves. This span of ocean is ideal for swimming, fishing, sailing, paddle boarding, kayaking and more. There are even coquina quarries on site that date back to the 1700s to the construction of the Castillo de San Marcos.
If you're not into camping you can stay at one of the many St. Augustine beach hotels. And kick back on the balcony and feel the warm ocean breeze on your face as you gaze out on the beautiful expanse of beach and ocean. Listen to the waves as they offer a soothing welcome to St. Augustine Beach.
