Things to Do
Weddings
Weddings are allowed on the beach and no special permits
are required. All beach regulations must be followed.
Marriage licenses are issued by the Nassau County Clerk of
Courts. Call (904) 548-4600 for more information.
BEACH PARKS
Sand
Florida’s wide, sandy beaches are made up of quartz
crystals produced by the weathering of continental land
masses like the Appalachians. The quartz is washed
down America’s great rivers into the Atlantic and the Gulf
of Mexico where it is carried onto the beaches by water
currents and waves.
Sea Turtles
Each summer, loggerhead, green and leatherback sea
turtles emerge from the surf to lay their ping pong ballsize
eggs in the sand and then quickly return to the sea.
Dedicated locals volunteer to patrol the beaches to log
the nests and track hatchings.
Please protect these endangered sea turtles by leaving
nests, eggs and hatchlings undisturbed. From May 1 to
October 31, lights that shine on the beach and open fires
are prohibited from sundown to sunup.
Surfing
Mild surf conditions and varying underwater terrain
make this a great place for novices to learn and experts
to practice. Boards can be purchased or rented and
lessons are available. Surfers must have surf and boogie
boards tethered to one leg while in the water.
