Jeez, I really did a terrible job posting my response here. Sorry.

Notice the diver? The Fed Alters mention sea attacks too.

The Fountain of Youth National Archeological Park isn't that far from the ocean. May even have a water way in that isn't on the Yahoo Map:

Going to the website you linked, Cal - it is the one and only Fountain of Youth in St. Augustine.

The spring there has a building over it - a planetarium a rock's throw away - statues, etc., and you walk only a very short distance down to the water!

There is a large statue of Ponce de Leon there, and just beyond, supposedly the site where his ships anchored.

It would be VERY easy to approach by any means - boat or plane or a casual tourist on foot making the walking tour.

The crowds were not large, *but" it is located within the city limits! and if a large area were affected - well - - panic and chaos most definitely would be achieved.

Troubling thoughts flow....St. Augustine is a very compact area, full of historic buildings and shops and restaurants and foot traffic.
