St. Augustine's air quality benefits from its Atlantic coastal position in northeast Florida, with consistent onshore sea breezes providing reliable maritime ventilation along the Florida First Coast. Vehicle emissions from US-1 and I-95 are the primary local sources, while summer ozone from subtropical heat and the Jacksonville-St. Augustine metropolitan traffic is the primary warm-season concern, and the flat coastal terrain and Atlantic exposure prevent significant pollution accumulation.
