Yes, the Fountain of Youth is a historical site in St. Augustine, Florida. It is located in the Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park, where Ponce Deleon is believed to have first landed. You can sample water from the fountain, but it has no magical powers. It doesn't even taste very good. It is warm and tastes a lot like the old pipes it is brought up through. It is still an interesting trip, and there is a planetarium next door to the fountain that tells you about the stars and DeLeon's voyage. There are also peacocks located all through the site.
