Fort Clinch State Park — is a must-see attraction (watch Fort Clinch video). With over 1,100 acres, Fort Clinch State Park sprawls across Amelia Island’s northern tip. (At the opposite end of the island is Amelia Island State Park, a 200-acre preserve encompassing Amelia Island’s southern tip, also the location of the Kelly Seahorse Ranch, offering horseback riding on the beach.)

A second historic district is Old Town, located slightly north of the downtown historic district, with the distinction of being the last Spanish city platted in the Western Hemisphere (retaining the 1811 plat). NOTE: This historic district does not have any shops or restaurants and is a residential area. Old Town is located off North 14th Street (from historic Centre Street — which turns into Atlantic Avenue — turn onto North 14th Street at the traffic light and follow until you see Old Town on the left, just before the 14th Street bridge). Located on the western side of Amelia Island, both historic district areas are great places to be at the waterfront to watch a gorgeous sunset over the Amelia River when visiting the island.
