Things to do in Fort Pierce

Fort Pierce is a working waterfront town on the Treasure Coast, where the Indian River Lagoon meets the Atlantic at Fort Pierce Inlet. Charter boats head offshore for sailfish, kingfish and snapper, while the inlet and lagoon are known for snook, redfish and trout. The coast earned its Treasure Coast name from the Spanish treasure fleet that wrecked off these beaches in 1715, and coins and artifacts still turn up after storms.
