AT#909 - Travel to Northeastern Florida - Jacksonville, Amelia Island and St Augustine

Hear about travel to Northeast Florida as the Amateur Traveler talks to Angie Orth from Angie Away about her hometown and the area around it.

Why should someone go to Northeast Florida?

Angie says, "So many reasons. People come to Florida for a lot of different reasons. Mostly theme parks, maybe swamps, alligators, Miami. Those are the things when I meet people around the world that they think Florida is about. Everybody thinks I either live in Miami, in some kind of penthouse, or like at Disney World, in a castle of some sort."

"There's so much to do here, but I would say the majority of it is It's outdoors, it's nature, it's history. We have a ton of interesting history that even natives don't necessarily know about. It's hidden away in the neighborhoods and buried and there's ruins and also layers of history, layers and hundreds of years and wars. To make this area what it is and it's really interesting once you start going to the national park areas and the forts and the ruins."

Angie recommends several must-see locations and activities in Northeastern Florida:

1. Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island (Nassau County):

• Visit Fort Clinch State Park for hiking, biking, and exploring historic forts.
• Enjoy the beaches, which are often quiet and uncrowded.
• Enjoy one of Amelia Island's charming bed-and-breakfasts.
