Beauitful city -- one of my favorite in Florida. Stay on the West side of the intercoastal as the East side is particularly tacky. Parking can be a pain, brick streets might tear up your car, and traffic often snarls with the addition of tourist trams and horse-drawn carriages. Everything is old. The locals are very friendly people and wonderfully tolerant of those of us who march up and down the street to photograph their houses. Flagler College has some great scenery as well as a beautiful campus. Beaches are to the South and very peaceful unless Spring Break happens. The Atlantic is too cold for my tastes, though.
Avoid Jacksonville to the North like the plague. If you need to get out to a larger city for anything, drive yourself all the way to Orlando.
I'll try to throw a list of interesting places together, Montmorency. Its one of the projects I'm working on for the entire state and it means I'll be returning to St. Augustine in a couple weeks to do a full weekend of exploration.
Oh, and I've heard The Haunted Pub Tours are worth the money.
