Things To Do
Fernandina Beach Historic District
The Bride’s Recommendation! Amelia Island is anchored by the colorful town of Fernandina Beach. Its 52-block downtown is known as the Amelia Island Historic District. You could spend hours wandering the quaint streets and Victorian storefronts that between the harborfront and Centre Street. Spend an afternoon shopping, then stop at Palace Saloon, Florida’s oldest bar, for a round of Pirate’s Punch.
Soak up Rays on the Beach
The Bride and Groom’s Recommendation! One of the best things about vacationing on an island is that there’s a beach practically everywhere you turn. Amelia Island is 13 miles long, which means it contains 13 miles of pristine beaches. Options to check out include Main Beach (also called The Family Zone), Seaside Park (where events often take place), historic American Beach, and Amelia Island State Park. In all, there are more than 40 public beach access points sprinkled across the island.
The Tavern by AIBC
The Groom’s Recommendation! A pint of cold beer is a welcome companion for a long day of fun in the sun. At Amelia Island Brewing Co., you can choose from a rotating tap of 20 or more craft brews. The Tavern offers a big gathering space, plus a full food menu. Meanwhile, sister location The Alley offers a smaller taproom with cool indoor/outdoor seating and ample natural light.
