Amelia Island Beachfront Homes :

 

       You may be first charmed by the beautiful name Amelia. Then you will be extraordinarily charmed by the Southern charm and lovely sceneries, with Victorian homes, miles of salt ponds and beaches to play and relax on, that Amelia Island delivers. Amelia is ranked among the 10 Most Beautiful Beaches in the World.

        Amelia Island is the last barrier island on the Atlantic coast of the United States. The island is approximately 2.5 miles wide by 14 miles long. To the west of Amelia Island is the Intra-coastal Waterway and to the east is the Atlantic Ocean.

          The Island is located just 35 miles far from downtown Jacksonville, Florida. Thus Amelia Island offers the quiet of a small island while providing convenience of the big city. The town of Fernandina Beach, located on the northern part of the Island and where you can find the most beautiful Amelia Island beachfront homes, offers a historical perspective of the old southern era. In the last 400 years, Amelia Island can boast of being the only location in the U. S. to have been under eight different flags. The French occupied the island between 1562 and 1565, the Spanish from 1565 to 1763, the English from 1763 to 1783, the Patriots in 1812, the Green Cross of Florida and even the Mexican Rebel Flag in 1817. The U. S. Flag finally flew over Amelia Island from 1821 to the present except during the Civil War when the Confederate flag flew from Fort Clinch from April 1861 to March 1862. History abounds at Amelia Island. Amelia has also been the home of many pirates and some say there is buried treasure that still lies unclaimed on the island.

            The main attractions of the Island are the beaches, golf, fishing, Fort Clinch, and historic Fernandina Beach. Amelia Island is also host to many major events such as the Bausch & Lomb Tennis Championships, Concours d'Elegance, Amelia Island Chamber Music Festival and the Annual Shrimp Festival. Amelia is one of Florida's best kept secrets. As a real estate wise you may consider the Island as a great location for your family home.
