ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. – An innovative “Getaway Card” now offers outstanding discounts for visitors to St. Augustine, Ponte Vedra & The Beaches. Available for easy download from My Getaway Card, the free card provides discounts on nearly every feature that makes the destination so popular – including entertaining attractions, world-class golf, accommodations for every taste and budget, outstanding shopping, and upscale dining.
“We understand that the economic difficulties experienced worldwide have resulted in people carefully watching their spending, taking fewer trips and being much more budget conscious when planning their leisure travel,” said Charles Cox, chairman of the St. Augustine, Ponte Vedra & The Beaches Visitors and Convention Bureau. “The Getaway Card provides real savings and value at a time when people need them the most.”

In addition to listings on the website, hotels, restaurants, shops and attractions offering discounts to card holders are easily identified by the Getaway Card logo in their windows.
