Amelia Island is situated just off of the coast in northeastern Florida. While the island is easily accessible, it is typically difficult to forget. Amelia Island is comprised of approximately thirteen miles of stunning beaches, pristine waters, and plenty of native wildlife, making the barrier island a beloved beach destination for both local residents and visitors. There are over forty public beach accesses along the Amelia Island’s thirteen miles of coastline. A guided kayaking tour offers an opportunity for visitors to see more of the natural side of the island. Segway and stand-up paddle boarding tours are also available. Amelia Island Map
