5 Tips for Visiting Charming Stuart, Florida

In this video, we're showing you 5 Tips for Visiting Charming Stuart, Florida. This friendly, laid-back SoFlo coastal community has so much going for it from the shops and restaurants in the historic downtown along with the vibrant Riverwalk to a world-class museum dedicated to local history and the transportation industry. There's a fascinating history on Hutchinson Island where you'll find the last House of Refuge on a rocky beach where shipwreck victims would seek shelter. And don't forget about the quaint fishing community of Port Salerno. That home base for our stay in South Florida and we couldn't have been happier with our choice! Find out why.

    40 year resident of Jensen beach. By dads family was one of the first settlers in the area and had a member as the bridge tender. Tickets used to be sold to cross the old st. Lucie bridge at a few cents.

    Haven't finished video, but movie poster in Elliot Museum has Frances Langford on it. Wife of Ralph Evinrude, outboard motor mogul, and large holding of land in Jensen Beach (Stuart really) and she owned marina on Indian River there. He funded FIT satellite campus so no development could occur on that land around the marina

    Vesuvio’s Pizzeria in a small strip mall behind the RaceTrac on US 1 in Stuart. The absolute best pizza we’ve had anywhere in a really long time! Perfectly baked and loved the large pepperonis. They also have two large cases of authentic Italian desserts. A lot of customers were just coming in for the sweets! Highly recommend Vesuvio’s!
