Amelia Island "I've had friends come and visit and they haven't left. They've been so smitten with Amelia Island that they decided to move here. You have this beautiful, expansive beach. It's great for fishing, surfing, and shark tooth hunting. Another great activity that we like to take our friends and family when they come here is horseback riding. It's a bucket list item. I mean, it's just a dream." (Photo courtesy of AICVB) (Deremer Studios LLC - Amelia Isl/Photography by Deremer Studios,)

Amelia Island "I think there's something transformative when you stay on Amelia Island. We hear from guests time after time that the moment they arrive on Amelia island is like if their shoulders finally drop, they can finally breathe and be present in the moment," Johanna Marlin from the Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island noted.
