For people who enjoy golf, boating or fishing, appreciate an area with natural beauty and a casual lifestyle yet still want easy access to a major metropolitan market, then the Treasure Coast is for you.

Here the pristine Atlantic beaches stretch as far as the eye can see. To the west, the Intracoastal Waterway broadens to one mile as it passes through the vast Salt Water lagoon of the Indian River, with navigable St. Lucie River nearby.

The small-town atmosphere, which nationwide is becoming an increasingly desirable ingredient in the choice of a home location, is a common characteristic of most Treasure Coast communities.

Noticeable change in the level of activity occurs just before the beginning of Season (that time of year between November and April) when the Snowbirds arrive on the Treasure Coast. Theatres and venues paint up and clean up, programs and performances take shape and planners make ready for what they say will be the best year ever. Their focus is on the seasonal visitors who motivate these efforts. But, to be sure, the residents also benefit. Those who are transplants to the area find great satisfaction. They are treated to a menu of events which often surpasses that of the areas from which they have come.

It shouldn't be surprising to find that so many people head for Florida. The fortunate ones who now call the Treasure Coast home, especially those who once endured snow and ice storms like those depicted in television weather reports during the winter months, are only surprised that the numbers aren't greater. The warm climate, abundant waterways, unspoiled sandy beaches and preponderance of championship golf courses make the Treasure Coast an ideal vacation destination. It's especially right for people who want to get away from stress filled days by simply relaxing at the beach, on the golf course or poolside with a good book. It is no wonder vacationers turn into residents. The Treasure Coast area is just that...a treasure!

Come and see for yourself...
