Amelia Island State Park, nestled along the coast of Fernandina Beach, offers a sanctuary for nesting shorebirds and coastal wildlife. Spanning over 200 acres of unspoiled wilderness, the park boasts beautiful beaches, salt marshes, and coastal maritime forests, providing visitors with a glimpse of the untouched beauty of the Real Florida.
Visitors to the park can enjoy leisurely strolls along the beach, search for shells and shark teeth, or observe the diverse wildlife that inhabits the area. Anglers have the opportunity to surf fish along the shoreline or cast their lines from the mile-long George Crady Bridge Fishing Pier that stretches across Nassau Sound.
Accessible via an easy drive from Jacksonville or Fernandina Beach, Amelia Island State Park forms part of the Talbot Islands State Parks collective, inviting visitors to explore the interconnected natural wonders of Pumpkin Hill Creek Preserve, Little Talbot Island, Fort George Island Cultural State Park, and more. Experience the unspoiled beauty and abundant wildlife that define this coastal gem.
