With Unique, Easy-Going Activities

Few Florida cities can boast as many aquatic activities as Fort Pierce. The Indian River, beautiful beaches, yacht-friendly Fort Pierce Inlet and many marinas found here make this a marvelous destination for making a splash.

Found in the northern part of the county’s mainland—and including the intersection of I-95 and the Florida Turnpike—the city is brimming with distinctive charm and things to do.

Fort Pierce's charming, restored downtown is home to numerous shops, restaurants and galleries, including the A.E. Backus Gallery, which celebrates one of Florida’s most famous artists. Museums, exhibits and cultural opportunities also abound, such as the Manatee Observation & Education Center and the Sunrise Theater. Fishing, boating and other activities await in the area, all near affordable accommodations.
