Highlights
National Geographic has selected The Ancient City, one of the top-10 places in the world to see Christmas lights, for over a decade! Each year, more lights are added and the Nights of Lights Festival becomes more and more popular. Why struggle, maybe for hours, to find a place to park and then walk to see just a few blocks of lights? Step aboard Pellicano and let us take you downtown, like you've never been downtown! The reflections on the water appear to double the number of lights in the city, while the fresh night air in the bay makes some of the best restaurants on the east coast, smell even better!

Great experience and great guides! Perfect date night
5Seasonal Festive Cruise
Just my wife and me, along with a large group who booked the same trip! No problem, though, they were great! And the crew did a fantastic job on a bitterly cold night! They had cookies and Hot chocolate available and shared very interesting information along the way! Since it was still Christmas season, they handed us glasses to look at the lights, and I'll just say it gave you festive views! All in all, a great 90 minutes or so, and thank you to the crew for making our visit a little more special!

4Enjoyable
Perfect weather. Nice experience people friendly. The lights reminded me of Epcot. Interesting facts about light house and Fort
5Nice night on the water!
Very fun evening ride to see the Christmas lights. Captain James was informative and hilarious. We were a little panicked because we couldn’t find the dock right away, so give yourself time beforehand - it’s dark out there!

About St Augustine
St Augustine is a Florida town on the Atlantic coast, founded by the Spanish in 1565, with a coquina fort, narrow streets and Victorian-era hotels.
St Augustine was founded by the Spanish in 1565 and is the oldest continuously occupied European-founded settlement in the continental United States. The Castillo de San Marcos, a fort of pale coquina shell stone built by the Spanish between 1672 and 1695, guards the waterfront. The Spanish Quarter, pedestrian St George Street and the cathedral basilica sit within a few blocks, and the Bridge of Lions crosses to Anastasia Island.
