Small-town living in historic Fernandina Beach

Representatives of the Smithsonian Institute have visited, describing local life in Fernandina Beach as “one of the best examples of small-town living in the U.S.” The Victorian-era seaport made the National Trust’s list of “12 top vacation destinations in the United States for historic preservation.” Amelia Island’s Civil War-era Fort Clinch is one of the best-preserved 19th-century forts in America. Fernandina's downtown historic district has 50-plus blocks on the National Register of Historic Places.
