There are few places that shed light on the holiday season in quite the same way that St. Augustine does. In fact, National Geographic has in the past named this festival in its top ten holiday light displays in the world!
If you’re in this northeastern Florida city between November 19th and January 31st, 2023, be sure to make St. Augustine Night of Lights one of your must-see St. Augustine things to do.
Taking place throughout the historic district of what is recognized as the oldest U.S. city, you’ll have the opportunity to visit downtown restaurants and businesses adorned with more than three million lights. Restaurants even stay open later than usual to allow you to dine and experience this breathtaking sight.
While there are many St. Augustine condo rentals, St. Augustine beachfront rentals, and other St. Augustine vacation rentals to choose from, there are some in particular that are perfect if you’re staying during this dazzling Night of Lights. You might even find some St. Augustine pet-friendly rentals if you’re vacationing with your four-legged family members!
