Fort Pierce

Fort Pierce combines a working waterfront with a relaxed Atlantic shoreline in a way that reflects its position on Florida’s Indian River Lagoon. The city occupies the mainland shore opposite Hutchinson Island, with Fort Pierce Inlet providing a passage between the lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean. Downtown’s historic core centres on the waterfront and hosts a Saturday farmers’ market at Marina Square. Fort Pierce also has a distinct military legacy: the National Navy UDT–SEAL Museum stands on former training grounds for World War II naval combat demolition units, predecessors of the SEALs. Beaches and the inlet make the coast part of daily life, while the lagoon supports estuarine habitats.
