    “I absolutely LOVE Fernandina beach!!! I am just learning to surf and have had great success. Some days, just as anywhere, the swell may be too rough or on the flip side may be too light, and I am not able to partake in my new passion. I still love Fernandina Beach area as I can still go lay on the beach and work on my tan, go to center street to shop, walk my dogs on beach, or even just eat at Sandy Bottoms if I can't surf. There are just so many things to do in Fernandina Beach!”
