After having so much fun in Key West (link below to watch the video) we were eager to check out another old city (well, the OLDEST CITY) in Florida. With so much history and BIG crowds we were searching for something that would still allow us to see some of the main attractions but also share with you some possibly lesser known spots.
St Augustine is a gorgeous city - the architecture along we could have created a whole video about! And when we asked our friends who lived there where to go that was off the beaten path many of them mentioned that most hidden gems were pretty well known by now. So...we did our best to help you check out some of the spots we don't think get enough attention!
Thanks for watching! Be sure to let us know what you think in the comments below and subscribe to our channel if you haven't already :)
BEST VEGAN EATS IN ST AUGUSTINE FLORIDA (not all got into this video)
Crave - a 10 min walk and great prices for large portions
Sprout Kitchen - off the main drag and AMAZING health food
The Floridian - more popular but well worth the wait
Osprey Tacos - something for everyone and a must on Anastasia Islan
Hyppos - real fruit and veggie pops
Andamam Asian Bistro - doesn't look like much but was SO good
SHOUTOUT to dog rose brewing for great beer- even Crystal thought it was good!

Thanks for watching everyone! What are your favorite spots in St Augustine? Where would you go when you visited?
Vilano Beach and Northern Vilano Beach.
We have vacation in St Augustine a few times now.
I agree with your statement. The beaches and Old Town two very different experiences. One wants to absorb old town over a couple of days I would suggest staying in Old Town or the very close peripheral. It makes exploring on foot or the trolleys a lot easier
First trip stayed in the heart of Old Town at a hotel.
Second trip stayed at a very unique hotel in Vilano Beach. Upcoming trip VRBO on Butler Beach:-)
Encouraged to see that you gave Butler Beach such high praise.
Beach & food & the nap 🙌. Looks like a pretty relaxing lifestyle. I think me and my husband would of done this awhile ago ourselves but with 4 kids it wouldn't work I don't think. Maybe once they all move out which shouldn't be much longer as the youngest is already 15.
Hi! Headed to St Augustine in the morning! Could you send me the location you stayed over night please? No issues with parking overnight? I’m in a class b as well.
An American woman sold her house and moved to Leeds Yorkshire don't go there trust me it is a nightmare to get out lol
Food, food, food...yeah St. A has the eats, the architecture and the beaches. I would live there in a hot minute. Have fun you two! Have a fun and safe trip north.
Thanks Karen, we had a lot of fun in St. A...😊
I think you did an amazing job capturing some of the beauty in ST AUGUSTINE. I love your honesty about must-see and maybe not so much-see places. Thank you for another informative video!! Safe travels
I was married in st. Augustine in 1997. It was my Granddaddys favourite place also. It is a magical place.
Just moved to St Augustine Snd we love it here ! I pinch my self every day to make sure I’m not dreaming because I can’t believe I live here
I was waiting for this video! Glad you liked my favorite town. I also thought the bathhouse area in Lightner Museum was pretty cool. Flagler college is a great tour also if you love old architecture. Yes, Great food!
I was there last week also. Loved everything about it.
I visited Saint Augustine in May of this year. I loved it so much, I'm returning again a couple of months from now. Such a wonderful city!
Oh awesome! St Augustine is a special place. 🥰
Great video. I needed it on this snowy day. 🌨 You two are very sweet together ❤️ enjoy your travels.
Awe, my college town. 🧡 I saw so many weddings from my dorm window. Hope you loved it. xx
Rich privilege, communism will destroy you elitist
Love u guys videos & especially the St Aug one , we just moved here 6 weeks ago from Miami , we r in heaven now 🙏🏻👍🏻❤️🇺🇸
I love the history of this area.
Really good video guys! Your music is awesome throughout! I get a kick out of how B seems SO laid back & Crystal, you seem very particular & like things “just so”-you work well together-always makes me smile. 😁Crystal, you’re so pretty!❤️ Really enjoy watching you two!-Babs, Wisconsin
Haha thanks for the kind words Babs!
great video! I live 45 minutes away from St. Agustine so I clicked as soon as I saw
ruclips.net/video/0N-Odzef2Qo/видео.html
Great Video ! we love St A
Love your outfit crystal 🤩
I just want to say that I love your videos, and I hope you keep doing what you're doing no matter what!
Awe thanks Shane! It’s people like you that help us keeping going! 🥰
Enjoying your videos. Contemplating Van life with my amazing hubby of 36yrs. St Augustine is a great place to visit. Have you checked out the greater Tampa Bay area. Tampa, St Pete, Clearwater, Dunedin, Safety Harbor, Tarpon Springs to mention a few. So much to see and do. I grew up in Miami and moved to Clearwater when I was 34. Been here for 25 yrs now. Love it for the most part but I really want to move to the NC mountain area. I really want to experience seasons and hiking the parks there and seeing all those amazing waterfalls.
Thanks for the beautiful Vistas and tour. As always love all your vids! I love Saint Augustine. I had some time to kill when I moved from Gulf Coast MS. To Miami so I took some side trips. Unfortunately the day I was in St Augustine it was really drizzly rainy day. But it was still really cool did a lot of exploring while I was there
Thanks for the great information!
Glad it was helpful!
Epic music!
Thanks Lisa! 🙌
Great video as always, you truly give me inspiration to explore and travel more. Especially when the whole covid think is over.
Best kind of life.
I so envy you, guys!!!
This was my first time watching your channel and it was nice to hear all the obscure facts about the lighthouse beacon and anti-pirate streets. Will definitely be watching more of your videos in the future.
Hi Brian, glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!
GREAT content!!
this is kind of a left field suggestion but st. augustine is a great place to play pokemon go on your phone. lots of the in-game points of interest highlight the locations of historical plaques, statues, buildings, etc while you get to catch pokemon in a very walkable area. i know a lot of people tinkered around with this game at one time or another, an old cute town is a great reason to dig it back up.
st. augustine also has a great distillery that does free tours, i'm a big fan of their gin 🌱
Haha yeah I used to play Pokémon when it came out about 5 years ago. But stopped a few months later. 😗
We actually went to the distillery but it was closed. Got there too late on our last day in St. A.
Awesome job, guys! Thank u
Thank you Maria :)
Good video, Butler Beach our Favorite for over 70 + Years , Many places y'all should see 🤗🌊🦈🇺🇲🏄
Love the idea of doing something a little different. Great ideas.
Go to Yorkshire England very peaceful especially Sandal Castle
Awesome Drone Shots ❤️
Thank you!
@@vanhallaadventures Is there a model you recommend?

I’ve been to state Augustine multiple times it is very cool
We love St Augustine!
If u r wearing heels I like to hear them coming down the stairs I lost my parents on 24th May this year it is soothing for me the noise
Born and raised in st aug lot of great times on those beaches in the 70s and 80s just a small coastal party town back then ! It's alot more commercial now
I (Brian) would have liked to see it back then.
My hubby and I went to St Augustine on our honeymoon. Since then, this city is something we miss and long for when we want a break from life! Well, and Nantahala outside of Bryson City, NC. You guys should travel the Dragon Tail😉
Hi Darla,
Crystal and I actual traveled on the dragon tail a couple months ago.
We have a Blue Ridge Parkway series.
Here’s one of three, check it out!

We have a Hyppo in Tampa and St. Pete. It's so good.
Great video guys!! It's our first watch of yours....now we've subscribed! We moved to FL from OH 2 years ago, and are getting ready to move to St. Augustine next week. SO excited. Crystal....where did you get the awesome hat? Love it. 🤠
When I went there I fell in love! I wanna move there so badly
Hello! Loved your video! We are going to St. Augustine next month for our five year anniversary and were originally going to book a hotel. You inspired us to try out a camper van instead! We’ve never done anything like that before so we think it will be super fun! The van that we are looking at to rent is solar powered. Do you have any suggestions on where to camp for free?
Where are you able to park your van when you visit these places and what do you do for heat when its cold
Wow
Nice video. If you return to St. A you need to try Buena Onda Cafe on W King Street - vegan options and so good.
Oh wow this place looks great! Can’t believe we missed that one. Next time for sure, thanks for watching !!!
Looks like am awesome place.
It's a really cool spot - I think its a great winter vacation spot to get out of the cold if yu live in colder climates. We really enjoyed it there! Thanks for watching :)
You have a good voice for ASMR
I went to st Augustin last year with my class
How cool!
lovely footage, edits, etc.! wondering if you'all had to pay for overnight at Butler beach? we're a couple of suburban/camper folk and have a concert to attend at the St. Augustine amphitheater on cinco de Mayo!! thanks.
Nah we just parked on the side of the street in a small grassy area.
You can’t park on the ocean side. No overnight. But the other side of the street is good. At least it was 2 years ago. Quiet spot, nobody bothered us.
Park late, get out early you should be fine.
@@vanhallaadventures ok yes, I’ve been scanning the maps for a quiet, unsuspecting place for an overnight and will try one of the local grocery stores nearby. Seemed to work well last time we were in Ocala, anyway. in late/out early
right on! Ty
St Augustine, the quaint drinking village with a fishing problem!
Very nice video, be careful of flying your drone over National Historical sites, state parks etc. as some people have gotten fines, I'm currently in Cape Hatteress which is a must see stop for you!
We’re planning on seeing the NC coast next time around. Loving the mountains right now.
Thanks for watching!
Loved the video; we are heading back to St. Augustine this year! Where did y’all end up camping up for the nights and was it difficult to find places?
Thank you!
We actually know someone in St Augustine so we parked in front of their house. Not a very exciting answer but that’s what we did....🤷♂️
p.s. if you DM us on Instagram I can give you some secret info. 😉
Was a hidden gem, shoulda been there 40 years ago.
I would have gone to the lighthouse.
I'd ask people how far away you can be from the coast and still see the lighthouse? Is it 5 miles, 50 or maybe 200 miles away.... That's where my curiosity would have taken me. ❤️💐
I'm craving taco so much.... As I'm in Harrisburg PA, maybe I could look up the menu at Osprey and try to recreate the flavors. Thanks for that great video.
What restaurant for the tempeh salad?
The Floridian!
Hello. Please consider doing TikTok also as another platform. This way, you're videos could easily go viral. I just feel like you're channel is very underrated and you guys are so genuine and deserve more viewers. ❤️
Thanks Lexa! We are planning on using Tik Tok soon. 😊
Where should I fly into if I wanted to visit?
Jacksonville
I'm going to guess that Brian is a Libra and Crystal is a Gemini.
Nope 🤣
I guess the dummy carrying the bucket was too strong for his own good, 1 simple pulley problem solved!! 0.o
love you guys and the VEGAN food tips are an added bonus
Thanks Rosalind.
Ive been there twice. I only live 30 minutes away.
But did you know, that a very skinny man with a very skinny horse was still able to rob the bank, not one, not twice but three times through treasury st.? Yep!
WHOA! It sounds like him and his horse were made for the 'job'!
Tell wife to go up while husband at bottom recording the noise coming down from top
Rick Grimes?
Huh? What does that even mean? 🤷♂️
@@vanhallaadventures I don’t know what they mean but Rick Grimes is the dad from Walkimg Dead. 🤷🏻♀️
Just curious. Do people wear masks in St. Augustine at all????
I mean it’s Florida… I don’t think anyone cares honestly
Coquina is pronounced [kōˈkēnə], not co-queen-a.
These are nothing really hidden, I've been to all these places.. .
Vegan...psssh. I rather chew on glass.
(Brian) Too each their own. I’d rather chew on plants then glass. 🤣
@@vanhallaadventures haha, yeah me too I was just being an ass. lol thanks for the videos.
How can you tell when someone is a vegan? They will tell you over and over and over and over again…
Yes! It’s the best, thank you!
