Florida

Amelia Island’s Fernandina beach has become one of my absolute favorite Florida beaches! The island is 13 miles long and sits just over an hour south of two other favorite low country beaches located to the north in Georgia: Jekyll Island and St. Simons Island. We have stayed at the SPG Westin Property on Jekyll Island and can highly recommend it as well.

Where Tampa Bay meets the Gulf Coast there lies a 7 mile barrier key named Anna Maria Island and you’ve probably never heard about it. But once you visit Anna Maria Island, you will wonder how they kept it a secret for so long.
