About This Beach
Amelia Island State Park beach offers a unique experience with its ability to drive on the beach with a 4x4 vehicle. While this adds excitement, it also impacts the serenity of the beach. The sand is soft and white, but the water has strong currents and isn't ideal for swimming. Fishing is popular here, and the area is known for beautiful sunsets, making it a popular spot for both anglers and those seeking picturesque views.
