Our beautiful little barrier island in northern Florida offers up plenty of pristine beaches, quaint walkable downtown, top-notch restaurants, fantastic water activities and plenty of history. But did you know Amelia Island has 13 MILES of unspoiled beaches, most with free public access? Or that we have 42 MILES of scenic biking and hiking trails? What about that it was named for a princess and was a home to wayward pirates? How about that it has 117 holes of golf with 7 holes on the Atlantic Ocean? And that it has a 50 BLOCK National Historic District with 100-plus restaurants (more than 30 within walking distance from our inn)! Did you know that 8 FLAGS have flown over the island since 1564? Learn even more when you come to stay awhile! See you soon on the island.

Wedding Garden No Secret
February 28th, 2016 by Charles Young
Let us help you plan you intimate, small, romantic wedding… at the Blue Heron Inn. The idea of a “Secret Garden” wedding area here at the Blue Heron all began with an idea from my incredibly smart husband, David. (Of course I had some good input, too!) First, we moved the fence back to enlarge the area right behind the pool. Next, we cleared out small brush to create cool pathways. Then we added intimate lanterns, lighting and an iron arbor, found at a local antique store. Last but not least – a fountain for the relaxing sound of flowing water. We can’t wait for you to see the final rendition…beautiful for small weddings, receptions, or just a “romantic get-a-away!”
