Bone Yard Beach
Bone Yard Beach is a sandy beach in Florida, at coordinates 30.50217, -81.44881, in Big Talbot Island State Park, near Fernandina Beach and south of Amelia Island. The setting associated with Boneyard Beach describes a one-mile beach, known for the bleached oak trunks that resemble skeletons. Fossilized mammoth bones have also been found on the beach. It is not recommended for swimming and attracts photographers instead. Access is from The Bluffs Scenic Shoreline Picnic Area, with a half-mile coastal trail leading north to the beach; a nearby area may close during the bird nesting season. The other mentioned beaches are more than 13 km away.
About this spot
Bone Yard Beach is chosen for walking, photography, and the landscape of Big Talbot Island, not for swimming. The access trail, the 20-foot cliff, and possible closures near the picnic area should be anticipated.
