Endless Summer Watermelon Ride 2026
A two-day community bike ride out of the Atlantic Recreation Center, September 12-13, 2026 — flat coastal routes and watermelon at the finish.
The Endless Summer Watermelon Ride rolls out of the Atlantic Recreation Center in Fernandina Beach the weekend of September 12-13, 2026 — a friendly, flat, end-of-summer cycling weekend rather than a race.
What to expect
Riders choose from route options across Amelia Island and the surrounding Nassau County roads, with rest stops along the way and the ride's namesake watermelon waiting at the finish. It's a good-natured community event that draws riders of a wide range of abilities.
Good to know
Registration is handled in advance. Route distances, start times, and pricing are posted on the City of Fernandina Beach events calendar closer to the weekend.
