Amelia Island

Amelia Island – If you’re in search of a relaxing beach destination with old-world charm, consider Amelia Island. Situated about 30 miles northeast of Jacksonville, Amelia Island features 13 miles of beaches, including Amelia Island State Park (where you can bike, fish or look for wildlife) and Main Beach Park (with a playground, an outdoor skate park, picnic tables, volleyball courts and more). Don’t forget to book a horseback riding tour for a fun way to explore the area. When you need a break from the beach, play a round of golf on one of the island’s championship courses or enjoy a stroll beneath its live oak trees.
