- Want to experience a Florida beach town with lots of history and plenty of cool things to do? One of our favorites is Fernandina Beach on Amelia Island.
A few minutes north of Jacksonville on the Florida Georgia line, this island is unique because it's the only place in America that has had eight different flags fly over it. Today, the community is a popular destination known for its grand Victorian-era houses and yearly shrimp festival.
In this video, we show you 10 things you must do in Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island.

I was born & raised in Fernandina I was there for my aunt funeral 2 weeks ago show missed home❤❤❤❤❤
Why does the town I work for look better on the video than it does in person 😂
I Love my little
Island.
I work for the city of Fernandina
great.....can't wait to visit
This video came just in time. Trying to plan my bday weekend for a quick getaway. Thank you for sharing. 😁
My daughters, grand children and one daughter’s mother in law spent Mother”s Day weekend in Amelia Island. We stayed in a hotel in Fernandina but spent the beach day at American Beach. We loved it! Unspoiled, peaceful and built memories collecting sea shells with my 3 year old grandson. I live in Jax and make frequent trips to the area.
Great video thanks for sharing. Next time check out the lighthouse there. I think it’s one of the oldest in Florida
Wonderful Job you did describing the Island! Born, raised in Old Town, and still live in town.
Thank you!
My husband and I go to Amelia Island every year and we love lt.
I work there everyday 😂
Totally enjoyed this video. As I've said before,
you have a great voice that makes your presentation even better!
And your photographer, well, she is the best!
Your Lakeland videos are the reason we are going there next week.
You've showed us parts of beautiful Florida that we didn't know existed 🏆🦩
Thanks Fran! Have a good time in Lakeland!
There’s one thing that’s missing: Buy some peanuts from Felix and listen to him play you a song on his harmonica.
My husband and I were married on the beach at Peter’s Point.
Living in Callahan and Loving Amelia and Fernandina. I was raised in Jax. I know the area well!
When I was a kid in the 1960s, my family used to erect our tents at the campground at Fort Clinch State Park. Next time I visit I may get to see the Star Trek sets in Kingsland GA.
Thank you, that was great!!!
Thx Carolyn!
I go to Amelia island in a few weeks for my yearly vacay there😆 my dad and I love fishing there and getting ice cream downtown
Another great video!
Thx!
Chad your content is incredible. I’ve learned so much from your videos and where to go and I have been in Florida most of my life!! Had no idea about some of these places! Thank you Chad!!
That’s awesome Michael! Thank you for your support!!
Me gusta mucho este lugar es muy especial
Love that flag at the fort.
Yes, so impressive to see it flying in-person
Great video, very well-made! And you have a great voice for narration :)
Thanks!
Very interesting and I learned a lot too❤️😄
Thanks Jackie!
Great Video! I would add a segment on the South end of the island as well. It obviously has a whole different vibe, more great restaurants, shops, art studios, and historic American Beach.
Stay tuned!
You can also horseback ride on the beach. Great video!
There is a wonderful public golf course and don't forget Amelia Island Plantation.Also the restaurant SALT.
Thanks for sharing I never been there there and we live fla, im planning camping in talbot state park there bike 🚴 is trail to Fernandina, thanks again for excellent information as always 🙏
Thank you for this video! I posted it on my Facebook page for AmeliaIslandOceanfront.
Thank you Carleen!
I love Amelia island, best time of my life. The whole area, yulee, fernandina, all are awesome. Indeed, it is the best of Florida and I want it to stay a secret so no one can mess it up?
What was the point of the question mark?
Only a fool could think that area is nice. It is ugly as sin and full of every cut throat and reject from up and down the coast.
Cat houses! Nice wording!
I love Fort Clinch, got married on the beach there!💜
💜
Nice tour. My wife and I visit as much as we can, since we live in Jacksonville.
Jacksonville is not so interesting. But you might like Neptune Beach with a nice selection of restaurants, a block from the beach. San Marco and River Side are also worth a visit. Both close to downtown which you should avoid.
But Amelia Island is the Gem. Try breakfast at Beach Diner on Amelia.
We love Neptune Beach, San Marco and Riverside. We have videos in our library from the different Jax neighborhoods. Every so often, we make a trip downtown to visit Sweet Pete’s. Great tips Anthony! Thanks.
You forgot to mention Denucci's for ice cream! Family owned and love it!
We’ve been there a couple of times. We’ll be sure to feature it next time. Thx for the suggestion!
They’re my favorite! My kids always got Banana Dudes but I love the whipped Done pineapple.
Stop in at Amelia’s Fine Jewelry on Center Street if you would like to own a piece of real treasure. There are shipwreck coins and ancient coins available along with antique and estate jewelry.
It’s weird seeing one of these for a place I grew up 30 minutes away from XD
Go fishing! The speckled trout, flounder, red and black drum fishing in the river is usually pretty good.
I lived here for a while and i didnt know a bunch of history
of the island
Born and raised. RUclips is fine but stop moving here 8)
Check out the Florida house it is supposed to be very haunted
The Palace is haunted by an old saloonkeeper named Charlie. 😊
I live on the island Literally I live in Amelia Island
If you have a 4x4, gotta drive on the beach.
I do and I heard about that. When I get back there for sure. I just came back from JeepBeach… it was amazing
That won’t last if our County Commissioners have anything to do with it. Selling off Fernandina is their favorite pastimes.
@@lorenarucker1811 that’s a shame to hear
Can only drive on the beach if you're a resident or property owner !
@@Gromble_Sir looks like I’m out
Where can you ride a motorcycle on the beach?
Peter's point And Scott road have access to drive. There are some other spots as well. I don't recall seeing too many motorcycles though? But I'm also just walking my dog all the time and not paying too much attention to it.
@@tamiwalter170 there’s a guard at peters point I think, I can ask there. Or drive up on the beach from Scott rd and apologize if not allowed! Thanks, tami
@@take5th Scott rd has a guard shack as well. Idt I have seen motorcycles before. Ik the sand is really soft and heavy at the beginning parts, idk if you could even get one past that part very easy?
I just came from there an hour ago ☺️
Unfortunately you can't 😔 I'm a guard at Scott's Rd but also a bike enthusiast and believe me, I've tried 😆
When you attempt it please post a video 🤣
I sent you an email this morning. I hope you will reply.
Obviously one thing you must do in Fernandina is cut all the trees down and pave over paradise and create more traffic. Because that's what's happening. I'm 6th generation and all my ancestors are turning in their graves.
That area is one of the most depressing and hideous looking places, not only in Florida…but all up the East coast. Cannot conceive of anyone seeing it any different.
Have you been there? One of the best small towns in Florida.
@@ChadGallivanter Know it very well.
