Location Overview

There's a Place for You Here
Fernandina Beach, FL is a bikeable city along Florida's northeast coast. It's a coastal town less than an hour away from downtown Jacksonville, FL. Baptist Health's Nassau Medical Center is the community's only medical center catering to the local population and tourists.

• Beautiful Beaches and Relaxed Atmosphere: You can unwind on pristine beaches after work or spend weekends kayaking or paddleboarding. The island vibe offers a slower pace of life compared to big cities, ideal for those seeking a relaxed environment.
• Lifestyle and Charm: Fernandina Beach boasts a walkable downtown with unique shops, art galleries, and friendly faces. This charming community fosters a strong sense of belonging, making it easier to build a social circle.
• Outdoor Activities: Nature lovers will find plenty to explore, from biking trails to dolphin-watching tours. The abundance of outdoor activities caters to those who enjoy an active lifestyle.
• Coastal Home: While Fernandina Beach offers a relaxed atmosphere, it's not completely isolated. Jacksonville, with its wider range of entertainment and big-city offerings, is within driving distance for occasional city trips.
