Explore Florida’s Amelia Island

Just outside Jacksonville, Florida, sits an island defined by wide sandy beaches, Spanish moss-draped pathways, and a charming historic downtown. Matador Network has partnered with Amelia Island to uncover the best ways to experience the destination and why it stands out as a coastal escape.

Days here unfold with sunrise beach walks, horseback riding along the shore, biking through shaded pathways, drinks on a floating tiki bar, dolphin sightings at sunset, and, of course, plenty of delicious local food along the way.
