🐬 Did you know bottlenose dolphins can often be spotted swimming through Amelia Island’s waterways? They sometimes work together to herd fish into shallow water for an easy meal!

It’s Halloween week, so here is some spooky Amelia Island history.

She lived alone on an island… then vanished without a trace!👻

Did you know about the mysterious woman who lived on Crane Island near Amelia Island?

Alice Broadbent spent decades living alone on the island. But in 1952, her home burned to the ground—and Alice was never seen again. Her body was never found, and the mystery of what happened to her remains part of local lore. 😮🌊

What do YOU think happened to Miss Alice? 🤔

Did you know that fall is a wonderful time to spot monarch butterflies on Amelia Island? As they migrate south for the winter, these beautiful butterflies can pass through Florida on their journey to warmer climates. 🦋

We don't remember hiring anyone new, but apparently we've got another team member! 😂
This egret keeps showing up at Riptide like he owns the place, and thanks to our friends at Hot Dog House FL we've learned he's quite the local celebrity!

They suggested we give our feathered friend a name, and we couldn't agree more.

So, Amelia Island, what should we call our newest (and least productive) employee? 😂
