INLET/OCEAN

The dazzling blue waters of the Fort Pierce Inlet are world-renowned by the yachting community but also cherished by residents and visitors to the area. The area has become a bustling hub of recreational activities, restaurants, and of course, access to the big blue ocean from the Indian River. 30 feet deep and over 100 feet wide, the channel also delivers access to Hutchinson Place, where it is perfectly situated to fulfill the need for more marina space and waterfront access for boaters.
