One of the most romantic beaches…Amelia Island!

With it’s location near the border of Georgia, the Island has a true “southern” feel.

The live oaks, Spanish moss, salt marshes, sea oats, sand dunes and shrimp fleets (best shrimp you’ll ever eat) all remind me of my youth. My first love of beaches started as a young girl, when I lived near the coast of the Sea Islands in Georgia. Amelia Island is part of over 100 of those islands that stretch from South Carolina to Northern Florida on the Atlantic Coast.

Stay right on the beach in a cottage. Or,enjoy an ocean view from your Jacuzzi suite at one of the many great hotels.

You can horseback ride and drive your car on the beach (in certain locations). The wildlife in the area is amazing. You may spot Porpoise’s or even a North Atlantic Right Whale. To learn about all of the county’s beaches visit: County Beaches.
