Tuesday’s Travel to Marblehead

In my humble opinion, the best place to live in Second Life is the estate of the Islands of New England (which I affectionately call SLNE). There is a strong community spirit here, as well as beautiful scenery to see as you navigate through the picturesque waterways. Our community is themed, meaning the strong covenant keeps everything looking in place, no garish gilded castles or blue trees with pink leaves here.


If you decide to come for a visit, the first place on your stop should be the sim of Marblehead. This is the hub of the estate. Here you will find the main music venue, art display, historic sites, free boats and textures, rental information, and a quaint and charming shopping Village that is 3500m in the sky.


Come with me and allow me to take you on a little tour of Marblehead.

Our first stop, Fort Sewall, which includes the music venue. Truly the hub of the estate.



A replica of an historic large sailing vessel called the Ernestina.



A good way to explore the sim is to rez a horse! You can find one here at the barn.


A typical SLNE view...isn't it quaint and charming?

Click on these magic red doors and you will be transported to the Village above Marblehead at 3500m.
It's a whole other world up there! You don't want to miss it.

A glimpse of the Village...full of unique shops, a trolley, a learning center, community gathering place...and more!

At the Welcome Center you will find hot coffee and a lot of nice free gifts. Be sure to come by and take a look.


The recently opened Forge is a popular place to hang out, dance to tunes spun by a DJ, or come to a live concert.


New England wouldn't be complete without a little red schoolhouse!

I hope this brief tour of Marblehead has piqued your interest and you will come for a visit, or to sail, or to shop, or to a concert, or to find your place to live. I feel pretty sure you won't want to leave and you will come back again and again.
