Answer:

Fort Caroline

Step-by-step explanation:

Pedro Menendez de Aviles established the base camp that grew into St. Augustine after his first encounter with the French near Fort Caroline. St. Augustine was well located. It commanded the entrance from the ocean and was surrounded by water on three sides. The only weakness in the armor was Matanzas Inlet.
