What's on site. OpenStreetMap maps playground alongside, parking at this location. No public toilets are mapped here — worth knowing before you commit to an afternoon.

When to go. Peak summer highs in Fernandina Beach average 91°F. Mornings and late afternoons are far more comfortable than the middle of the day, and shade is worth planning around.
