Valentines Day all month long!
February 20th, 2013We decided not to group Valentines Day specials and festivities all into one weekend and we offered Valentine Specials for the whole month of February and we found that you all gave us a big thumbs up!

Historic Bosque Bello
February 12th, 2013A must see for you history buffs on your next visit to the historic Williams House!
Called “beautiful woods” by the Spanish, Bosque Bello Cemetery is located off North 14th Street in Fernandina, toward Amelia Island’s northwest, close to “Old Town.” The Bosque Bello Cemetery’s original section is said to have been founded by Spanish colonials in 1798. However, according to the Amelia Island Genealogical Society, “the oldest identifiable grave, of French Soldier Peter Bouissou de Nicar, dates from 1813.” Apparently, the property was beautiful when the Spanish set eyes upon it, and its beauty remains in contemporary times.

Dolphin Pod we saw this weekend, many different groups of them hanging around the inter-coastal waterway around the island. Let us know if you’d like to ride on the Amelia River Cruise and enjoy the local river wildlife and we will gladly set you up with a reservation! Or just keeping an eye out for them as you laze or stroll along the beach or down by the marina as well!
