Vacationers love to visit Florida because of our beautiful beaches, but there are many more reasons why visitors choose Florida beach vacations as their vacation destination. We will take a moment to point out the most popular reasons why beach vacations are on the minds of so many.
Florida Beaches are Beautiful and Clean
The United States has many beaches to choose from; however, they just don’t hold up to Florida’s beaches. Of course we are particularly fond of the beach here on Crescent Beach with plenty of good reasons why! We aren’t crowded like South Beach, and we don’t worry about red tide like Destin. What we have is plenty of space for our amazing guests, and the traffic is minimal when you compare to other beaches in sunny Florida.
For visitors that simply want to soak in the sun, relax, breathe in the fresh salty air and not worry about the extra expense of going to amusement parks and various tourist attractions, Crescent Beach is where you want to be, as we have some of the best relaxing beaches that you could ask for.
St. Augustine’s History
Many of our guests love taking a short drive up to St. Augustine and learning about the history of the first city in the United States. In addition to the history, and the feel of stepping back in time with St. Augustine’s cobblestone streets, we have guests that can never get enough of the ghost tours that are offered by various organizations in the historic district.
Enjoy the Arts and Culture of St. Augustine
Just a short drive away from our beautiful lodge, guests can enjoy local art that is sold in various galleries and shops in the area as well as some restaurants. We even have an ArtWalk every first Friday of the month.
Our area has a very relaxed atmosphere as well as culture. Our guests get to truly relax as the locals aren’t usually in a rush to get anywhere and the Florida lifestyle is all about relaxing and enjoying the benefits of the salty fresh air.
Shopping and Key Lime Pie in St. Augustine
Nothing compares to a day of shopping at the local shops of St. Augustine, as many have unique products that capture the heart and soul of St. Augustine. Our guests love walking along the cobblestone streets and going in and out of the shops to see what treasure they might find.
After a day of shopping nothing beats Florida’s treat – Key Lime Pie! On your way back to Beacher’s Lodge, stop at Key Lime Shop for some of the best Key Lime Pie you have ever had. If you are visiting on a hot summer day, opt for the Key Lime Pie on a stick. It is amazing!!!! Key Lime Shop is located at 35 Treasury Street. Just another local tip, a sweet spot you won’t want to miss during your next vacation in Crescent Beach.
