Romantic Places in Amelia Island to Experience this Valentine’s Day
This Valentine’s Day weekend, why not think outside the box? Flowers, candy and dinner for two are fine, but off the Northeast Florida coast, just a few miles from Jacksonville, real romance awaits. It’s the kind you see in commercials and magazines. The kind you look at and think “Wow”. Like horseback rides on the beach at sunrise. Being pampered with the one you love at a fancy spa. Strolling hand-in-hand through historic streets, discovering quaint shops and bistros.
