Amelia River Cruises & Charters Announces Winter Cruises

FERNANDINA BEACH, FL - Amelia River Cruises has announced the release of its new winter cruise schedule, featuring Cumberland Island and Beach Creek Tours. Each tour will be run daily, six days per week, all winter long. As Amelia River Cruises' sightseeing tours commonly sell out, reservations are strongly recommended.
 
"This is the best time of the year to take a Beach Creek Tour," said Kimberly Schwerdtfeger, Marketing Director of Amelia River Cruises. "Our local snowbirds, the white pelicans, are back for the winter season and we always look for them on our way to Cumberland Island, GA. We cruise up a quiet creek past ancient oaks and marshes to look for wild horses, dolphins, birds and other wildlife, getting as close as we can to the historic ruins of the Dungeness mansion. The cooler temperatures keep the bugs away and bring the wildlife out to play."
