Welcome to
Historic St. Andrews

The first European settlement in the St. Andrews Bay area was along Beach Drive between Frankford Avenue and Lake Caroline.
Retired Georgia Gov. John Clark and his wife Nancy built a home and lived there from 1827 until their deaths in 1832. Just a few people resided year round in St. Andrews, earning a living making salt, fishing, and boarding vacationers who came to the area for the "healthy sea baths" and the fishing.

 

 

By the mid 1800s, the summer population was between 1,200-1,500. The Clark home was converted to a hotel known as The Tavern.
