Rich history can be found in St. Augustine, Florida. The city of St. Augustine is the nation's oldest permanently occupied European settlement. It was founded by the Spanish in 1565.

Also, a vast majority of months receive the maximum of 8/9 sunshine hours per day; so good weather isn’t restrictive to the summer months. Although rainfall tends to increase in the hottest months, similar temperatures in winter mean that weather is one of the most contributing factors in enticing visitors all year round. Added to such tropical climates are the stunning stretches of beaches, so wherever you are, there will be a beach in close proximity. These beaches are all gently sloping and therefore sandy, which is evidence of a typically depositional coastline, formed by constructive waves adding fine sediments. This makes the Florida beaches attractive to tourists.
Coney Island's three big luxury hotels, the Manhattan Beach, Oriental and Brighton Beach were the epitome of a gracious and leisurely age, a unique expression of their era. They were long rambling wooden structures, 600 to 800 feet in length with deep verandas (porches) reaching down their entire length. They faced the sea but were set back by wide green lawns decorated with beds of geraniums and lobelias, and had broad curving walks. These gracious hotels became more and more popular with each day. Evening entertainment included music and fireworks.
