If you want to give your credit card some exercise, head out to River City Market Place in Northside. Why not take a stroll along the riverfront and watch the sunset while you're here?
If you like spending time outside, why not spend the afternoon at Halfmoon Park, a park located 16.5 mi (26.5 km) from the center of Jacksonville. Want to stretch your legs some more? Head to Eagle Bend Island Park and Pioneer Park, both nearby.
You might want to practice your swing at The Golf Club at North Hampton, a golf course located 7.3 mi (11.7 km) from central Fernandina Beach. Hotels.com travelers also say the area is full of friendly people and has lots of nice beaches. If The Golf Club at North Hampton doesn't quite scratch your golfing itch, Omni Amelia Island Resort Golf and Fernandina Beach Golf Club are all just a short drive away.
