"For a taste of old-school Florida beach vacations—sandcastles, ice cream, and room to roam—I loved the wide, uncrowded shoreline of Main Beach on Amelia Island, which offers 13 miles of sand and 40 public access points for low-key family getaways; accessibility is a priority here, with an ADA-compliant Mobi-mat from the boardwalk to the sand and reservable upright and floating beach wheelchairs via the Atlantic Recreation Center, and for a classic resort-style stay you can check into The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island for boardwalk-accessible sand and breezy ocean-inspired rooms." - Paul Rubio
