Fishing

Our hand-picked favorites on Amelia Island

Fishing on Amelia Island is as easygoing or as hardcore as you want it to be. From quiet backwaters and winding tidal creeks to nearshore and offshore waters, the island offers year-round opportunities for anglers of all levels. Cast for redfish, trout, flounder, tarpon, kingfish, and snapper, or head out with a local fishing charter that knows the tides, seasons, and secret spots. Whether you’re tossing lines at sunrise, chasing a big offshore bite, or teaching the kids the basics, Amelia Island fishing is all about salty air, steady action, and letting the day unfold one cast at a time.
