* Parking in the Oldest City
Parking in any colonial village like Saint Augustine is challenging, to say the least. After all, the town was designed for donkeys & carts not cars. We must remember, these streets were carved out of the sand in 1565 ~ the date we were founded.
So the city has very narrow streets and even smaller parking spaces. We recommend you drive your smallest vehicle and travel with friends if possible.
Our parking is complimentary and Guests park at their own risk. We offer parking at our discretion, so oversized trucks, special vehicles, and trailers need to find parking elsewhere, off-site, at the driver's expense. The city parking garage is on West Castillo.
And parking is offered only if it is available. While we watch over it all day long, the parking lot access is not controlled 24/7 therefore, there is no guarantee of parking availability.
To ensure a parking space, we suggest parking early, and not moving later in the evening. After all, you can walk everywhere intown from here.
