A Romantic Solo Weekend in Amelia Island
Amelia Island is a northeast Florida barrier island rich with history and a sense of bygone romanticism. A stay at one of the historic Italianate mansions turned B&B’s, like The Fairbanks House, will have you feeling like you’ve stepped back in time.

Amelia Island’s Fort Clinch state park is a cave of old oaks and dappled shade. Their branches come together like clasped fingers high above your head, and the Spanish moss sways lazily in the coastal breeze.
