Getting lost is often a great way to get to know a vacation destination. You don’t have to take the term literally, but simply walking around and familiarizing yourself with your surroundings allows you to encounter things you might not have intentionally—like a cute coffee shop or an unexpected local pinball museum. As our vacation house rentals are, in fact, on an island, there are plenty of ways to explore besides on foot. Check out Amelia Island boat tours and other kinds of trips to see the island from another perspective during your stay with Amelia Rentals.
Amelia Island Boat Tours
See as much of Amelia Island as possible by booking one of our Amelia Island boat tours. Through Riptide Watersports, a private charter will take you and five of your travel group members to Cumberland Island to see the wild horses on the beach, or the Kingsley Plantation to see grounds that used to grow cotton and indigo. Or, book Amelia River Cruises for more of a variety: learn about Amelia Island’s history on the Beach Creek tour, bring your children to the kid-friendly Sunset Tour, or relax with a drink at the adult-only Twilight BYOB Tour.
Amelia Island Ghost Tours
Although ghost tours are something you might normally book for spooky season, on Amelia Island, you can hop on a ghost tour all year round. Amelia Island Ghost Tours claims that they catch paranormal activity on camera on the daily. Ghost tours by the Amelia Island Museum of History begin at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church and end after an hour of creepy delights.
Amelia Island Kayak Tours
Give your arms a good workout by taking an Amelia Island kayak tour. Between Amelia Adventures and Amelia Island Kayak Excursions, there are ten places to paddle. For an autumnal twist, sign up for a moonlight or “Creepy Creek” tour so that you can listen to the “nightlife” of the creatures near Amelia Island.
Amelia Island SUP Tours
See Amelia Island with its daybreak beauty by taking out a stand-up paddleboard at sunrise, through Amelia Island Paddle Surf Company. Or, opt for an eco-tour, where the guide leads you along and teaches you about the plants, wildlife, and ecosystem of Amelia Island. In addition to SUP tours, sign up for SUP yoga if you’ve already mastered yoga on the ground, and want to challenge yourself on the water.
