Wild Amelia Nature Festival 2027
2027 dates to be announced — estimated mid-May (the festival usually runs ~10 days in mid-May with a Saturday Eco-Expo; confirm on wildamelia.org). Guided eco-tours, speakers, a photo contest, and a free family Eco-Expo celebrating the island's ecology.
Note: the exact 2027 dates have not been officially announced yet. The Wild Amelia Nature Festival is typically held over about ten days in mid-May, anchored by a Saturday Eco-Expo, so mid-May 2027 is our best estimate — confirm on the official site before planning.
The Wild Amelia Nature Festival celebrates the natural side of the barrier island with guided kayak, boat, and walking eco-tours across Amelia Island's parks and marshes, expert speakers, and a nature photography contest.
Good to know
The family-friendly Eco-Expo is free to attend, while guided eco-tours carry a nominal fee. It's an easy way for visitors and second-home owners to see the wildlife and ecosystems that make the island special.
Pair nature weekend planning with the live events calendar and, for an inland overnight, the Gold Head Branch camping guide.
