Amelia Island Fun Stuff

This section of our web site is dedicated to Fun Stuff - things to do off the beaten path - activities that the concierge at the Ritz Carlton Amelia Island wouldn't necessarily suggest - places to go that you won't find on the activities list at Amelia Island Plantation. Those of us who live here full time are referred to as 'locals' - by the other locals, of course - so call it our 'Local Flavor Section' if you will.

Too many times in too many places, the locals don't tell the tourists all the good stuff. So after much soul searching - five minutes worth maybe - we've decided to reveal it all here. Depending on who you are and where you came from, you might find some of these local Amelia Island secrets useful.

Sure, when the kids want to go fishing, you can load them in the rental car and take them to the marina for a fun day of charter fishing. But we aren't sure most people want to spend $800 to take to kids fishing, and we know some great spots the kids will enjoy fishing without busting the family budget. Call it the Amelia Island Online Charter Fishing Cruise - no boat required, but fun will be had by all.

Everybody likes to shop until they drop. Must get some good beach stuff when you're at the beach, right? Well sure you do. But again, we're confused - we aren't sure everybody is going to want a Rolex watch to take home to each of their friends - or a $49 T-shirt with a nice embroidered logo - so we'll try and give you some local info on where the bargains are hiding.

Sure, you can find very fancy, very elegant, very expensive, very tasty fine dining at many locations on the island. But we aren't sure that is what most people who come here for vacation want to eat every night while they're here - and we aren't sure that the concierge at the hotel or the front desk clerk at the bed and breakfast knows where to get the best subs, BBQ, pizza, and Chinese carry out. And if they do know, we aren't really sure if they are supposed to tell. So we figured that we should.

We'll constantly be adding to this section of the web site as we find more fun things to do and neat places to go, so check back now and then to see if you can find any more good Amelia Island insider info. Have Fun! And don't forget the sun block - nobody likes bright red tourists.
