#3 Fernandina Beach (Amelia Island, Florida)
On Amelia Island, there is a little community called Fernandina Beach. The barrier island, which is off Florida’s northern shore, has been drawing tourists for close to 500 years. Finding your ideal spot on the sand is simple thanks to the island’s 12 miles of largely uninhabited beaches during the winter. The biggest natural coastline area on the island, Fort Clinch State Park, is also located near Amelia.
The brick fortification is among the best-preserved forts from the 19th century in the country, so if you enjoy history, you shouldn’t miss exploring its hidden passageways and chambers. On its exterior walls, visitors can stand and enjoy even more stunning views of Cumberland Sound and the Atlantic coastline. In addition to a half-mile-long fishermen’s pier and even more breathtaking sights, the dunes that are all over are perfect for strolling. A different well-liked off-season activity is riding horses across the beach.
