The Colony is a residential community on Amelia Island, the barrier island in Nassau County at Florida's northeastern corner, bounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Amelia River and Cumberland Sound to the west. Fernandina Beach anchors the island's north end with its historic Centre Street district, while the southern reaches turn quieter, with resorts, golf, and state park land along A1A. Housing on the island ranges from historic in-town homes to condos and single-family neighborhoods set among live oaks and maritime forest, and The Colony forms part of that mix. Public schools on the island are part of the Nassau County school district, and daily life revolves around the beaches, the marina, and the island's small commercial centers.
