The nation's oldest port / city is St. Augustine, FL. Founded in 1565 by Pedro Menedez it is the nation's oldest continually occupied European city. While it is no longer a major fishing port it was the capitol of the shriming industry in the early-mid 1900's. Today, it is known mostly as a vacation destination; however, a few shrimp trawlers can still be seen off its shores.
