St. Augustine’s Lost Souls Self-Guided Smartphone Ghost Tour
Overview
Explore St. Augustine’s haunted history on a self-guided, approximately 2.5-mile smartphone walk that takes about two hours.
Across 19 story stops, pass the Old City Gates, Huguenot and Tolomato cemeteries, historic inns, Flagler College and Castillo de San Marcos while discovering tales of the lighthouse and other places beyond the route. GPS-triggered audio plays as you walk, and a live map shows the route and your location.
