Amelia Island is Florida's northernmost barrier island and is only 13 miles long and one-and-a-half miles wide. Its long, deserted stretches of beach create the perfect oceanfront destination, which is complimented with superior oceanfront homes, condos and cottages for overnight lodging and weekly vacations. The historic Seaport of Fernandina anchors the north end of the island. This quaint village provides over 20 superior restaurant choices and walk around browsing in small shops near the waterfront.
