Spot Guide
Main Beach at Fernandina is Amelia Island's primary surf spot, known for spitting sand-bottom barrels just yards from shore. With limited interference from outside sandbars, it delivers a legit shorebreak experience at higher tides — hollow, fast, and powerful. When a solid NE swell hits in winter, this spot fires with some of the longest, most powerful lines on the island.
