For a taste of natural Florida, the St. Lucie River offers easy paddling through mangroves and quiet residential waterways alive with wildlife. Nearby, the Savannas Preserve State Park protects one of the state’s largest freshwater marshes — more than 10 miles of pristine wetland threaded with hiking and paddling trails.
It’s a haven for birdlife, otters and alligators, and a peaceful escape just minutes from town.
