The bulwark of Castillo de San Marcos

A Definite Highlight of St. Augustine

With Sonshine Educational Tours, your students will never forget their encounter with this 17th Century Fort. It was begun in 1672 by the Spanish and, despite two British sieges, was never captured. See the bunks where Spanish soldiers slept, the magazine, draw bridge and many period artifacts. You will also see the cell in which Osceola, an influential Seminole Indian chief, was kept after his capture. You will see all of this and much more on this narrated guided tour.
