Fort Pierce, FL

united states

Fort Pierce sits along Florida's Treasure Coast about an hour north of West Palm Beach, accessible via Interstate 95 or the more scenic US Highway 1. The city straddles the Indian River Lagoon with easy beach access and serves as St. Lucie County's seat. Downtown's restored 1920s Main Street leads directly to a marina where manatees frequently gather in the lagoon's warm waters during winter months.
