Expanding Value Card Program Deals Visitors Full House of Savings on Florida's Amelia Island

AMELIA ISLAND, FL, Jun 24 (MARKET WIRE) --
Florida's Amelia Island is expanding its popular new Value Card program,
offering visitors of Florida beaches a wide range of travel coupons at
more than 40 of Fernandina Beach's most popular shops, restaurants and
attractions. The Amelia Island Value Card, part of the new incentive
program, is offered to guests upon check-in at any of the island's
collection of upscale beach resorts, historic bed and breakfast inns,
condominiums and hotels. Visitors can find a list of participating Value
Card vendors at each of the island resorts and online at
www.ameliaisland.com, where they can also view a list of available
discounts. Visitors can print the travel coupons from the site to present
with their card or simply look for the Value Card sign displayed at
participating retailers on Amelia Island, Florida.

"Since the program began in May, we've seen a growing interest from
visitors and our local businesses alike," said Gil Langley, President and
CEO of the Amelia Island Convention & Visitors Bureau. "As they explore
the shops and restaurants around the island, I suspect our visitors will
begin seeing the Value Card sign more frequently."

Visitors using the Value Card can enjoy a complimentary Smoked Fish Dip
appetizer with purchase of dinner at The Crab Trap, 10 percent discount
at the Marina Seafood Restaurant, $1 off admission to the Amelia Museum
of History, 10 percent off any daily or weekly rental at Beach Rentals
and More, 15 percent off non sale items at Last Flight out and many more
incentive gifts in Fernandina, FL.
