About Fort Clinch State Park
At the north tip of Amelia Island, Fort Clinch looks across the St. Marys River into Georgia. You can explore the fort’s rooms and galleries (9am–5pm), and on the first weekend of every month a soldier garrison fires the cannons. Around it, 1,400 acres of maritime hammock and arching live oaks offer trails, camping, fishing and shark-tooth hunting on the beach.
