St. Augustine Beach: Ocean Dr.
About
St. Augustine Beach: Ocean Dr. is a public beach access point in Florida, about 1.4 miles from the town of Butler Beach. Lifeguards are on duty here, and dogs are allowed, so it works for a beach day with the family dog along. Spring is the most comfortable time to go, with April typically bringing highs around 80°F and lows near 61°F. Midsummer runs hotter and wetter, with July highs around 91°F and roughly 13 wet days that month, based on typical averages from a nearby weather station at the St. Augustine Lighthouse. For a change from the sand, Moses Creek Conservation Area Trail is about 4.3 miles away. Rattlesnake Island, a climbing area, sits about 8.3 miles off.
