Amelia Island



Amelia Island: is one of the southernmost of the Sea Islands, a chain of barrier islands that stretches along the east coast of the United States from South Carolina to Florida. It is 13 miles (21 km) long and approximately 4 miles (6 km) wide at its widest point. Amelia Island is situated off the coast in Nassau County, Florida, south of Cumberland Island, Georgia. Fernandina Beach and Amelia City are both located on the island. Named for Princess Amelia, daughter of King George II, Amelia Island is also rich in history and tradition. Native American bands associated with the Timucuan mound-building culture settled on the island, which they called Napoyca, circa 1000.
