Amelia Island State Park offers a rich blend of coastal scenery and recreational opportunities on the northeastern tip of Florida.
Amelia Island State Park is located at the southern tip of Amelia Island, one of Florida's sea islands along the Atlantic coast. It's a recognized sanctuary covering over 200 acres, protecting a variety of habitats from stunning beaches to salt marshes. The park is famous for its beautiful shoreline where recreational horseback riding is offered right on the beach. Visitors enjoy bird watching, with several important species such as the least tern and piping plover frequenting the area. Fishing is another popular activity, particularly at the park's productive fishing pier. Historically, Amelia Island boasts a colorful past, having been under the control of several different nations, and this park serves as a portal into this complex heritage. With its easy access to maritime forests and pristine coastline, Amelia Island State Park remains a charming destination for both relaxation and adventure.
