SATELLITE PARKING LOTS & OLD TOWN TROLLEY STOPS

Parking and Old Town Trolley Stops
There isn’t a lot of parking on Vilano Beach, so Whiskey, Wine, & Wildlife has partnered with Old Town Trolley Tours and Adventure Boat Tours to run folks between the festival and downtown St. Augustine and other points in Vilano.

• Old Town Trolley Tours — A free, continuous shuttle circulates on Saturday, November 9, from noon to 6:30 p.m., between several parking areas along Coastal Highway A1A and Vilano Town Center. The shuttle stops are:

• Adventure Boat Tours — For $15.00 per person, two boat tour companies, Adventure Boat Tours and Red Boat Tours will provide shuttles from the St. Augustine Municipal Marina to the Vilano Pier. To learn the schedule and book tickets, call 904-759-2759. Note: There is no designated parking at the Municipal Marina, so make sure to leave time to find a spot and walk to the marina.

The festival also highly encourages utilizing ride services and/or designating drivers for guest drop-off/pick-up.
