The brackish waters of the Indian River Lagoon are likely to hook you some snook – or red drum, spotted seatrout, Spanish mackerel, sailfish, redfish, snapper, summer flounder and more! The area is teeming with wildlife – over 4,000 plant and animal species inhabit the Indian River Lagoon Estuary of Fort Pierce.

You could also catch dolphin, tuna, barracuda, cobia, sailfish, snapper and grouper, sometimes just 10 miles offshore in the Atlantic ocean, accessible via boat charter.

The white sands of the clean and serene Hutchinson Island Beach are perfect to relax on. Half of this unspoiled beach area is in a designated nature preserve.
