Fort Clinch

One of Amelia Island’s favorite places to visit and opportunities to find unique photos.

This photo of the barracks inside the fort was taken on a cloudy day with full sun on the building and with no visitors, I think I had to wait for about 12 minutes for this photo to come together.


Breath Taking Sunrises & Sunsets

Sunrise on the Beach

The beach spans almost the whole island and is usually within walking distance of most resorts or hotels.

Check your Golden Hour app for the best times to hit the beach for a sunrise or catch the blue and gold at the same time.
