One of the most colorful watering holes on Centre Street--hand-painted murals, a hand- carved 40-foot mahogany bar and pressed tin ceiling enrich Florida's oldest saloon, circa 1878. This former haunt of the Carnegies and Rockefellers still serves a potent Pirate's Punch. (904) 261-6320.

Ameilia Island - Things to Do and See

There are hundreds of things to do on Amelia Island including:...
Amelia Island Lighthouse

Considered the oldest structure on the Island, the 1839 sentinel stands 64 feet tall and features a third order Fresnel lens. The lighthouse is still an active aid to navigation and is observable 19 miles out to sea. (904) 261-7378.
Bosque Bello Cemetery

Lined with sprawling oaks and cedars, this 1878 cemetery was the burial ground for soldiers from the Revolutionary, Spanish American and Civil wars. (904) 261-7378.
Fernandina Harbor Marina

The Fernandina Harbor Marina sits at the end of Centre Street in downtown Fernandina Beach - birthplace of the modern shrimping industry. The adjoining shrimp boat dock is a sunset sensation as fleets of shrimp trawlers arrive home. (904) 261-0355.
Fernandina's Historic Victorians

Fifty blocks of shady streets lined with gracious 19th-century Victorian "cottages," the exclusive Silk Stocking District recalls Amelia's golden era. Adorned with opulent turrets, gables, bays, gingerbread rick-rack and fishscale decorations, Amelia's architecture ranges from Queen Anne, Italianate, Chinese Chippendale, and Florida Vernacular to "Mississippi Steamboat" masterpieces. Unique, even among Fernandina's historic Victorians, is The Fairbanks House. This 10-room, 8,000 square foot mansion, once called "Fairbanks' Folly" because of its opulent excesses and fascinating history, is now operated by Hosts Bill and Theresa as one of Amelia's most popular bed and breakfast inns.
Historic Centre Street - Fernandina

Once a bustling Victorian seaport, picturesque downtown Fernandina Beach now harbors a treasure trove of history, antiques, fashions and collectibles. Multi-colored brick buildings dating from 1873 to 1900, gas lantern replicas and wrought iron benches and cobblestone walks lead to the shrimp boat-anchored marina.
St. Michael's Catholic Church

St. Michael's Catholic Church, which is located in Fernandina Beach's 50 square block Historic District, is named in honor of Father Michael de Aunon, O.F.M., who was martyred in 1597 at St. Catherine's Island, Georgia, during the Indian Rebellion against the Franciscans. St. Michael's was dedicated in 1872.
The Florida House Inn

Florida's oldest surviving tourist hotel. Built in 1857, this authentically restored Florida Vernacular estate epitomizes Amelia Island's romantic Golden Age of tourism. Among its guests from yesterday were Gen. Ulysses S. Grant and Jose Marti.
The Net House

(Burbank Trawl Makers/Standard Marine)
The world's largest producer of handmade shrimp nets, the Burbank family plies their craft the old-fashioned way--with needle-wielding fingers flying almost too fast for onlookers to photograph. With buyers from Africa to South America, they supply more than 2,500 nets yearly. Tours can be arranged through the Amelia Island Museum of History. (904) 261-7378.
The Old Railroad Depot

Florida's first cross-state railroad had its terminus in Fernandina Beach and laid the tracks for a quarter century of wealth and prosperity. Located at the tip of Centre Street, the 1899 red train station now houses the Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center. (904) 261-3248.
