About this place Green Turtle Tavern

The Green Turtle Tavern is a laid-back beer-and-wine bar on South 3rd Street in downtown Fernandina Beach, a block off the Centre Street strip. Small, unpretentious and dog-friendly, it draws a mixed, easygoing crowd and is consistently listed as one of the island's genuinely gay-friendly watering holes. There is live acoustic music on many evenings and a shaded patio. It is not a gay bar in the dedicated sense — Amelia Island has none — but it is an easy, welcoming stop for LGBTQ+ visitors looking for a relaxed drink downtown.

This is a great spot to hang outside, listen to live music and enjoy a good drink. Staff is friendly and efficient. When they have the grill nights, I recommend the burgers - one of the best I've had.
