The city tours are perfect for someone who wants to see everything! You can experience various attractions from the famous Castillo de San Marcos in the middle of the town to the Fountain of Youth and everything in between. The tour is child friendly and is entertaining for those of all age groups. The farmers markets are great for finding the most unique gifts to bring to those loved ones back home. They have a wide variety including fresh fruit and quirky trinquits. Best of all they are completely pet-friendly, meaning you can bring your four legged best friend with you.
Crescent Beach
If quiet surroundings and island vibes are what you are looking for then Crescent Beach is where it’s at. Tour a bit of history down the road from Beachers Lodge and visit the popular Ft. Matanzas! If you are up for a nature walk, the Ft. Matanzas Overlook Trail is a must.
Guests from all over bring their water toys and either enjoy the day relaxing in the surf just feet away from their ocean front suite, or rent a kayak or two and enjoy the mystical adventures the Matanzas River has to offer. There’s so much to see and do for the beach enthusiasts.
Livin’ That Florida Lifestyle
When booking a vacation to Florida, most people are looking for a beach scene. From surfing lessons to swimming with the dolphins at Marineland you can live a true Florida lifestyle here on Crescent Beach. If you are truly wanting to embody that salty air everywhere experience, surf lessons would be perfect for you! If you don’t like to surf alone, perhaps a swim with the dolphins will be a better way to check out all of the marine life Florida has to offer; Marineland is an absolute must. Or if you’re feeling a fishing frenzy, don’t forget about surf fishing from the shoreline. Otherwise, Floridians love a chill beach day more than anything. Put on some Jack Johnson, crack a cold one and lay out on the beach all day. There is nothing more relaxing than listening to your favorite music and the ocean crashing onto the shore.

Best of all it is located just down the road from us, about a 10 minute drive. It is a must see while visiting our beautiful area. It is located directly on the beach and is a perfect photo op area along with a great place to have a quiet moment to yourself either on the beach or in the gardens. This is one of our best kept secrets of the area.
