Where Can Renters Camp Around Fernandina Beach?
Unusually for this coast, the best camping is inside the city, at the fort park on the island's northern point.
Fort Clinch State Park: Two campgrounds here, one behind the dunes on the Atlantic and one along the Amelia River, both taking RVs on electric and water. The ranger station is closed while it is rebuilt, so arrival procedures may differ.
Little Talbot Island State Park: Back down the coast road in Jacksonville, twenty sites among the dunes with hookups and a 30 foot cap.
Huguenot Memorial Park: On the county spit further south, powered pads with filling and emptying at shared stations.
Flamingo Lake RV Resort: Inland on Jacksonville's northern rim, a commercial park with every connection at the pad.
Island sites here are among the most contested anywhere, so book the moment dates open.

What Are the Best Things to See and Do in Fernandina Beach?
This is a genuine nineteenth century port that never got demolished, so a fifty block downtown of brick storefronts, churches and sea captains' houses survives largely intact. Guarding the island tip is a masonry fort with living history demonstrations. A greenway of marsh and dune trail crosses the middle of town, and the municipal beach park sits on the Atlantic. The harbor marina is under multi year reconstruction, so waterfront access there is restricted.
Which RV Rental Fits an Amelia Island Stay?
Jacksonville RV Rentals can supply a Class B camper van, a Class C or Class A motorhome, or either size of towable trailer, with long term rentals on request. Stock turns over week to week. The island rewards planning around the fort park, since sleeping there puts you inside the city rather than commuting over the bridge each morning. Its two loops behave differently: the Atlantic side is exposed and sandy while the river side sits under live oak, and the access roads on both favor moderate lengths over the longest coaches. Downtown parking is metered street bays with no rig provision at all. Ask the team which listing matches your loop.

What Our Renters Say
Amazing experience. Great customer service and all around top notch people. Our RV was clean and worked perfectly. We will definitely rent here again.
I can't brag enough about this company! Traveled from Jacksonville Florida to the Blue Ridge Mountains for a music event. I won't rent from anyone else now! Highly recommend!
Rented twice from Erika. Two different sizes. Easy pickup and got a quick lesson as a 1st timer! 1st trip was for a music festival with my daughter and a friend, perfect size.
2nd trip was just me a Joey (dog). Planning my 3rd and 4th trips!
We had the most incredible experience with Jacksonville RV Rentals! My family drove through 17 states - from Florida all the way up to New England and back - and their RV was perfect for us!!
