The area surrounding the St. Augustine Amphitheatre on A1A South provides access to paved paths and the nearby Anastasia State Park road system that create a popular route for runners, walkers, and cyclists seeking a scenic workout in a natural setting close to the beach. The combination of the A1A corridor, state park roads, and multi-use paths in this section of Anastasia Island allows for routes of varying distances in a consistently beautiful coastal environment. Early morning runners and cyclists share these paths with wildlife - deer, shorebirds, and the occasional gopher tortoise are regular sightings along routes through the state park.
