St. Johns County
Across the bridge from St. Augustine is Anastasia Island, home to St. Augustine Beach. At 2.5 square miles, St. Augustine Beach’s less than 7,000 residents enjoy a quiet haven on the shore. Outdoors is the focus of activities – be it a concert at the St. Augustine Amphitheater or a walk in Anastasia State Park.
Vilano Beach is a residential area with superb access for beach enthusiasts. Locals shop small businesses and typically pay greater housing costs for seaside locations. Residents in both communities leverage resources in neighboring St. Augustine (a short trip over the bridge) for schooling, work and major retail options.
