St. Augustine, Florida
The history of St. Augustine is defined by its location on the Florida coast. The coastline was treacherous, with underwater terrain and constant tropical storms. At least 16 ships ran aground in 1782 as they were trying to sail into the harbor for shelter from a storm. A series of wooden watchtowers were built along the coast as an early warning system.
