The Fernandina Pirates Home Port-

Amelia Island has a long and rich history of pirates and privateers.  At one point in history seeing 300 plus vessels anchored in our harbor would be a common sight.  Many of those ships belonged to pirates and privateers. 

In the early 1800's, a pirate named Luis Aury came to Amelia Island and decided to lay claim to our island.  His flag (The Mexican Rebel Flag) is one of the eight flags that have flown over Amelia Island.
