Butler\, a young Black man\, moved to St. Augustine and settled in Lincolnville.\nIn 1927\, Butler purchased oceanfront property on Anastasia Island after becoming frustrated with Florida’s “whites only” beaches.\nIn 1964\, Butler Beach became a focal point of segregation as St. Augustine became a Civil Rights headline.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccess:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nVisitors can access Butler Beach through Frank B. Butler County Park.\nThe Mary Street Beach ramp takes drivers to the beach for a fee.\nUnpaved Gloria Avenue has free parking before the pay station.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nActivities: swimming\, sunbathing\, and biking.  \n\n\n\nBeach features: Dog friendly\, as long as the dog is leashed at all times\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
