Discover Fernandina Beach RV rentals for memorable road trips
About a 35 miles northeast ofJacksonville, the incredible Amelia Island holds one of Florida’s best-kept secrets: Fernandina Beach. This hidden gem lies on the border of Florida and Georgia and is known as the only municipality in the entire United States to have flown eight different flags; this is due mainly to the fact that this hotly contested territory has switched hands between several European countries in addition to becoming its own sovereign territory and being a part of both the United States and the Confederacy during the Civil War.
Fernandina Beach is a special place full of old architecture that reflects its turbulent past. Spanish missionaries, French colonists, and British soldiers all held Amelia Island at one point, so the buildings in the area are quite unique. In fact, several of Fernandina Beach’s buildings are on the National Register of Historic Places. When you book an RV in Fernandina Beach, you’ll have a fantastic way to discover Florida’s stunning beaches while avoiding the more touristy places. Be sure to rent an RV during early May so you can attend the Isle of Eight Flags Shrimp Festival, a celebration filled with fresh seafood, arts, antiques, fireworks, and parades!
