The Isle of Eight Flags Shrimp Festival transforms the historic district of Fernandina Beach, FL the first weekend in May every year into a celebration of the shrimping industry and a dash swashbuckling pirates for added flavor. Amelia Island plays host to several wonderful festivals each year but this is the grand daddy of them all. Not to be missed so if you are in the are join the celebration. http://coastalcompanion.com/florida/amelia-island/shrimp-festival/
