The oldest inhabited city in the country resides in Florida. About 41 miles south of Jacksonville, St. Augustine stands as the oldest city in the US. Settled by Spaniards in 1565, the city is home to a 17th-century fortress. Florida is the southernmost point in the USA. Florida has the longest coastline in the continental US.
Florida is a peninsula—that means it's almost completely surrounded by water. Its northernmost edge is connected to Alabama in the northwest and Georgia in the northeast. Take a swim off Florida's west coast, and you'll be in the Gulf of Mexico. Dive in off the east coast, and you'll be splashing in the Atlantic Ocean.
Florida is world-renowned for its beach resorts, amusement parks, warm and sunny climate, and nautical recreation; attractions such as Walt Disney World, the Kennedy Space Center, and Miami Beach draw tens of millions of visitors annually.
