Anastasia Island

Anastasia Island offers a rare combination of natural beauty, historic significance, and beach lifestyle just minutes from downtown Saint Augustine. The island’s 1,600-acre Anastasia State Park provides protected wilderness, while residential areas offer everything from oceanfront estates to charming island cottages.

The iconic St. Augustine Lighthouse has guided mariners from Anastasia Island since 1874, and today guides visitors to one of Florida’s most photographed landmarks. Beyond the lighthouse, the island reveals pristine beaches, maritime hammock forests, and the preserved natural Florida that development has erased elsewhere.

Anastasia State Park serves as the island’s crown jewel, offering four miles of uncrowded beach, kayaking through salt marshes, camping, and nature trails. Residents enjoy these amenities as neighbors rather than destinations, incorporating nature into daily life through morning beach walks, sunset kayaking, and wildlife watching.

Real estate on Anastasia Island spans from beachside communities to neighborhoods along the Matanzas River, many with deep-water access for boaters. The island maintains a relaxed, natural character that appeals to outdoor enthusiasts, families, and anyone who values environmental preservation alongside beach living. DJ & Lindsey appreciate Anastasia Island’s special character and help buyers find their place in this unique community.
