Call the Inn at 904-277-2328 to reserve a date for Mom or present her with a gift certificate to use anytime.

If raising kids isn’t adventure enough, active moms will love our lineup of island attractions, from the leisurely Amelia River Cruises to the exciting Skydive Amelia. Visitors love to kayak through the beautiful salt marshes, hike or bike miles of trails, explore the destination on segways, and relive the destination’s history at the Amelia Island Museum of History or Fort Clinch State Park. Or make it even more memorable with a horseback ride along the shoreline or view from a flying trike. The Omni Amelia Island Plantation is also offering a special Mother/Child Round Robin and Social on Saturday, May 11. The round robin, which starts at 10 a.m., will offer a morning of social tennis in the beautiful Racquet Park. Players must register by calling 904-277-5145 before May 10.

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.
