Things to Do in St. Lucie County
History, art, manatees, baseball and quiet beaches, area by area.
St. Lucie County’s attractions are small, local and spread across three areas: historic Fort Pierce and its inlet, the newer city of Port St. Lucie along the river, and the beach parks on South Hutchinson Island. Many of the best things to do are free or nearly so, from the Saturday farmers market to lagoon preserves and heritage trails.
Online-bookable tours are scarce here, so the area pages lean on what you can do on your own. Kayak trips on the Indian River Lagoon, inshore fishing from the inlet and sandbar outings are all available from local outfitters, and a travel specialist can arrange them through the trip-quote link on each page.
