The community, which features a 17,000 square foot clubhouse, fitness center, indoor and outdoor pools as well as tennis and other sport courts, was noted not only for its proximity to St. Augustine, which offers cooler temperatures, thanks in part to Atlantic breezes, than other popular Florida retirement destinations, but also for the active lifestyle opportunities offered to residents.

"We could stay busy every day with some sort of Coquina-connected activity," said resident Don Price. "Plus, we're only 15 minutes from Old Town and the beach where there's a whole lot more to see and do."
