St Augustine Nights of Lights

I dont know about you but I am ready for Xmass. Its time to forget about wars in the world and elections to get together and have some well deserved fun. Just like the past three decades, the old city becomes the city of lights ( Im sorry Paris). This year the lights will come on on November the 23rd until January 26th. 

 

Just like the past four years, St Augustine Land and Sea Tours will offer golf cart rides to enjoy the light displays while listening to holiday tunes during the entire Nights of Lights season. So bring your friends and families and allow our guides to handle the traffic while you seat back and navigate around town to experience one of the top ten holiday lights displays in the world.

 

This season, our rides will depart from the parking lot behind Trinity Episcopal Church on #2 Artillery Lane conveniently located adjacent to a private parking lot. The parking lot charges between $15-20 and is based on availability. As long as there is parking space available, there is no easier way to enjoy at the lights. We provide a comfortable seating area where you can wait for your ride departure and hopefully make some new friends.
