A Moment Under the Moonlight at Orange Beach Marina

Orange Beach Marina Meredith Amon


Last night, just after sunset, I paused for a moment outside Orange Beach Marina—a place I know so well from both my work and daily life. The breeze was soft, the palms were perfectly backlit by the deep indigo sky, and the moon hung suspended between them, quietly lighting the marina.

I took a photo with my phone to try and capture it—but what I really felt can’t be fully seen. It was one of those simple yet powerful moments that reminds me just how blessed I am to live and work in paradise.


Life at Orange Beach Marina

This marina is more than a launch point—it’s a symbol of the coastal lifestyle we live here on the Alabama Gulf Coast. Whether you're returning from a long day of offshore fishing, watching the boats gently rock under the moonlight, or just grabbing dinner at a nearby favorite like Shipps Dockside Grill, it always feels like you're exactly where you're meant to be.

The palm trees in this photo frame more than the moon—they frame a way of life. A life where the water is never far, and the stress of the world melts away with the sound of the wind through the trees and the scent of salt in the air.

It’s peaceful. It’s stunning. It’s home.
