Published Since 2001 — Amelia Island Living©

Amelia Island Living© publishes leisure content combined with a mix of local business and real estate topics, including trending news and opinion. Much of what happens around Amelia Island and its city of Fernandina Beach is related to the tourism industry and Amelia’s top attractions — the beaches and Fernandina’s downtown historic district. Additionally, Amelia Island Living’s content includes a favorite topic — coastal nature and local gardening.

Amelia Island Living© began publishing an online eMagazine 23 years ago (including an outbound eNewsletter), long before “blogs” or “blogazines” became mainstream. As a local information source for more than two decades, publishing digital content on topics relating to this Southern coastal region near the Florida-Georgia border, AmeliaIslandLiving.com has published thousands of articles and photographs since its debut back in 2001. Articles and photographs published by Amelia Island Living© eMagazine (AmeliaIslandLiving.com) are protected by copyright law, all rights reserved.
