Amelia Island’s Growing Real Estate Market
Fernandina Beach is the only municipality on Amelia Island — a barrier island in Nassau County just south of the Georgia border. The market draws buyers seeking coastal living at prices generally below Ponte Vedra Beach, with single-family homes ranging from the mid-$300s to multi-million-dollar oceanfront estates. The island’s Victorian-era downtown and strong tourism economy make short-term rentals particularly attractive for investors. Nassau County is one of Northeast Florida’s fastest-growing counties, benefiting from proximity to Jacksonville, no state income tax, and expanding infrastructure along the A1A and US-1 corridors.
