Green Cove Springs
is the county seat of Clay County, located just south of Jacksonville along US Highway 17 on the banks of the St Johns River. Green Cove has all of the amenities of country-style living in a relaxing environment, but is internationally known for its historic city. In Green Cove Springs, you will find convenient shopping centers, restaurants, recreational facilities and lodging to meet all of your vacation needs. It is just minutes to the beach communities of northeast Florida, including Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach and Jacksonville Beach. Great weather means year round swimming, boating, fishing and golf, and in addition, the Green Cove Springs area is also a favorite surfing spot. The nearby Dutton Island Preserve has hiking trails and a fishing pier, a floating dock for kayaks and canoes and picnic areas and campsites. A visit to historic St. Augustine is just a short drive away, and takes visitors back to the 18th century with its horse-drawn carriages, charming Spanish quarter and old fort. Other nearby attractions include the St. Augustine Lighthouse and Museum and the Alligator Park & Zoological Park. Green Cove Springs is a charming town full of old-time, southern hospitality, and a great place to base a northwest Florida vacation.

Green Cove Springs Weather & Climate
Northeastern Florida along the Atlantic coast near the Georgia border, enjoys a year round mild climate. Hot, humid summers and warm, mild winters attract lots of visitors to this area in all four seasons of the year. Florida, as a whole, has three basic climatic zones that are classified as "hot-humid." Northern Florida, in the Jacksonville-Amelia Island region is somewhat cooler than the southern part of the state due to its latitude, prevailing northeasterly winds and the cooling breezes from the Atlantic Ocean. It can rain anytime of the year in northeastern Florida, but the official "rainy" season runs from May through October, with September being the wettest month of the year. Winters are sunny and mild, with cool evenings.
