Amelia Island: Florida getaway without breaking the bank
Florida’s Amelia Island has much to offer the international tourist.
It’s a value destination where the dollar stretches further.
Amelia Island is a luxury Island without the luxury tag, a blend of natural beauty, history and a relaxed island vibe.
Near the border with Georgia, this barrier Island just 13-miles by two miles, is a perfect antidote to the winter blues.
Visitors can sink their toes into the Appalachian quartz sand, on the island\s uncrowded beaches, explore the nature trails and waterways on foot, bike, or by boat.
For anyone who enjoys the finest food at sensible prices there are plenty of opportunities to pamper the palate.
Layer in a local shopping experience, unique and far removed from chain store purchasing and you have a perfect winter getaway.
The Island is blessed with history, natural charm, art and culture and diverse accommodation options ranging from luxury resorts to boutique bed and breakfast options, as well as spa and wellness packages.
This being Florida, expect springtime blue skies and average temperatures in the low 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
Perfect for families or to relax, this all-season Florida location is ideal at any time of year
For UK travellers, there are regular flights from the UK to Orlando, which is a pleasant three-hour drive, or a one stop into Jacksonville 25-minutes from downtown Fernandina Beach.
