Duval County is one of the largest incorporated cities by land mass in the continental US & 12th in the country in population.
The history in and around our area is amazing from Fernandina Beach down thru St. Augustine & beyond; there is something for everyone. From the Castillo de San Marcos to the Kingsley Plantation, Fort Clinch State Park, Colonial Quarter, Treaty Oak & more. You might like to kayak the wetlands, boat on the St. Johns River, tour fine museums, walk the cobblestone streets that pirates used to roam, open swim/fish in the ocean, attend professional sporting events, participate in equestrian events & more. NE Florida is the place to live & do it all. Want to get away for the weekend? Take your camper to the many springs where Manatee love to hang all year long 70 degree waters. You can pack everyone up for a quick trip down to the attractions in Orlando. Pick up some fun finds at the many flea markets & antique malls. It’s a quick trip in the fall to watch some great college football. You can rent a horse & ride on the beach on Amelia Island. Bird watch, learn to surf, take the family to the zoo, attend the Daytona 500 & see traveling productions of Broadway shows just for starts.
