On Hutchinson Island there is a beach for surfers, and one for horses, and one for dogs. This is the one for people who like to be nude at the beach. If this is your thing the annual skinny dipping event is coming up on July 14th. They are trying to break the record of 769 people. As of June 2, 2020, 1,800 feet of ocean front Blind Creek Beach has been designated as clothing optional but a chance to be in your birthday suit in public isn't the only thing Blind Creek Beach has to offer. This beach park is a 108 acres of upland and wetland preserve with a mile and a half of beach that is an important nesting area for Green and Loggerhead sea turtles from late February to the end of October. Nests are especially prevalent during the summer. Blind Creek Beach also has quiet an interesting history as it is where the Nuestra Senora de las Nieves, a Spanish treasure ship went down on July 31st, 1715 in a storm that sank 12 ships and drowned 700 sailors. Those who survived were washed up on this very beach where they were met with members of the native Ais tribe. The rights to salvage are owned by a company so it is illegal to use a metal detector or remove any treasure you might find. Naked people, sea turtles, and long lost Spanish treasure make this a one of a kind beach on Hutchinson Island.

My trip was in July of 2023. I was born and raised in Ft. Pierce but moved away in 1988 and hadn't visited since 1999. Went to an uncle's funeral and while I was at it, I decided to finally go to Blind Creek Beach after wanting to go for a long time. I went at 6:30PM (I burn very easily so I went as the sun was going down), and there were just a few guys at the north side (I got with them later). Other than that, it was deserted. I went a little to the south side and put down my Turkish blanket. I had a thong on just in case I wasn't comfortable, but I quickly peeled my thong off and got naked and was there until sunset when the no-see-umms started biting my feet terribly. Nice beach, very pretty and simple. I'll absolutely go back again, hopefully with somebody else or with a group; if I still lived nearby, I'd be there every week! As of right now, parking lot and potties are closed for huge renovations, making getting there quite a bit more difficult. I'll wait until it's complete before returning.

There was a thunderstorm so we pulled into this beach to see what we could see. We saw an eye full, such beautiful clouds and rough surf. We were not disappointed.

Absolutely one of our favorite beaches. Never too crowded, always clean, plenty of friendly people.

Excellent waves! Wow the waves get pretty big here! For swimming this beach was a lot of fun. For hanging out on the beach, I don't know if I would return. There were tons of little flies and our legs got eaten up. It was not relaxing at all to hang out on the beach. There's a free parking lot but no bathrooms and nowhere to rinse off. We had to go up the road to Frederick Douglass Memorial Park to rinse all the salt off.

Great Relaxing Beach. No judgement. Everyone kept to themselves and enjoyed the Beach. Go and have a great time

Just the beach!
Lou S.

It's what you make of life what counts. I immerse myself in a little wanderlust just watching the waves and listening to nature au natural. What it started with a bucket list has become a peace & happy sanctuary. But that is me, I'm boring!

Relaxing in the sun!

What a lovely beach! We enjoyed our time thoroughly on this beautiful beach. This has to be one of the best clothing, optional beaches we have attended what we like the most was, it was not real crowded, and it was a Saturday. We will definitely be back! We've been to haul over beach in Miami Florida multiple times. At Haulover beach it is always crowded and you have to pay to park much better experience just a hour and a half to 2 Hour drive north of Haulover beach. It is worth the drive, I guarantee it!

Someone said it was a long walk but it's shorter than Haulover is from the parking lot to the beach.

Just north of the Fort Pierce Inlet along A1A is Avalon State Park. While the park spans the island…read morebetween the Indian River Lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean most people come for the beach. The park is open 8 a.m. until sundown, 365 days a year and the cost is $2 per vehicle payable in a box on the honor system. The more than one mile beach in this park provides a safe habitat for wildlife like the threatened and endangered loggerhead, Atlantic green, and leatherback sea turtles who nest on the beach during the spring and summer. While this beach is popular with nesting sea turtles, people love it too. Swimmers, surfers, snorkelers, anglers, and sunbathers flock here for unspoiled beach recreation. Park amenities include a restroom, picnic pavilion, and shower station. This is the perfect spot for a quieter beach day free from crowds. This part of Fort Pierce was once a naval training base during WWII where sailors practiced with high-explosive rockets, bombs, and underwater demolitions. It is important to note that underwater obstacles left behind by amphibious warfare exercises are still being recovered to this day.

The sand and water here is absolutely amazing, so on this beautiful Saturday with temperatures in the mid 80's there's no other conclusion I can come up with. There were only six other people on the beach when I pulled into the parking lot, seems a little odd so maybe it's the mere fact it's a State Park although I didn't see any Park Rangers to collect the fee, only a small money box attached to a post. The dunes are filled with native grasses, and the two paths leading to the beach are short so packing a few chairs and a cooler is a breeze. I can't make the claim that this is the absolute best beach in the area but seriously are there really any bad beaches - clean water, silky sand, and no crowds can't say I need much more than that...

You can see it all over in the parks named for key events or people who served in the war. During WWII the Germans were sinking ships in Atlantic shipping channels and hiding along the coast of Florida in their submarines. On May 5, 1942, German U-333 torpedoed and sunk the Java Arrow, a United States tanker eight miles off Fort Pierce. Two crew members were killed. A auxiliary volunteer Coast Guard rescued 22 survivors in a fishing boat but two other ships, the Amazone and the Halsey were hit by torpedoes off of Fort Pierce that same night. To protect the shore massive concrete tank traps with steel rails protruding were sunk offshore. The Fort Pierce Amphibious Training Base opened in Fort Pierce on Jan. 26, 1943 to train soldiers for WWII. Round Island became part of this base, a 19,000 acre military installation. The soldiers who stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day were trained here. Obstacles like the ones the Germans were placing to stop the Allied Forces during the war were put in the water off the shore of Ft. Pierce so boat drivers could practice eluding them and teams could practice blowing them up. At Omaha Beach one Fort Pierce based unit lost 33 men but were able to destroy 5 of the obstacles. More than 140,000 military personnel trained in neighboring St. Lucie County from 1943 to 1945, when at the time there were only 20,000 area residents. The objects remained in the water long after people started using the beach for recreation. Unfortunately some people were injured and in 1991 the government did a national cleanup of former military bases during which time the objects were removed and some were given to the SEAL Museum created by long term democratic Florida senator Claude Pepper. At the museum you can learn more about the part Ft. Pierce played in WWII. You can still see some of the underwater obstacles used for training between the picnic pavilions and parking area along with interpretive signs. In addition to some amazing history, this beautiful 11.36 acre park has free parking, beach access, five picnic pavilions with tables and grills, a playground, shower, restrooms, and a walking trail in the park. Lifeguards are on duty between 9:10 a.m. and 4:50 p.m. daily. Along the beach are areas blocked off to protect sea turtle nests. Across the street is Round Island Riverside Park where you can launch a canoe or kayak on to the Indian River Lagoon where you can see dolphins and manatees. I really enjoyed my time at Round Island Beach Park with its clean beach, clear water, well-maintained facilities, quiet setting. and WWII history.

This park is popular with snorkelers and divers because are several shallow nearshore reefs located less than 100 yards off the beach. Pepper park also the site of state's first underwater archaeological preserve, the Urca de Lima, which is located in about 20 feet of water. The shipwreck was discovered in 1928 by William J. Beach off of the coast of Ft. Pierce. Attempts to salvage the cargo yielded little except for one silver bar and cannons since the Spanish recovered most of the ships cargo in 1715. In 1985 and 1987 the wreck was mapped and in 1987 Florida's first archaeological underwater preserve opened. In 2001 the wreck was added to the National Register of Historic Places. The Urca de Lima is featured in the Starz show Black Sails which was devised as a prequel to Treasure Island. Captain Flint buried the gold from the Urca de Lima on Treasure Island. Other park amenities include lifeguards on the beach, fishing, picnic pavilions with tables, grills, restrooms, and a playground shaped like a ship. There is so much history here and so much to enjoy and they don't even charge for parking. There is even overflow parking across the street. This is a great alternative if you don't want to pay the $6 entrance fee at the nearby Fort Pierce Inlet State Park.

This beach pays tribute to that time and is named for Normandy Beach in France where so many heroic Fort Pierce soldiers lost their lives. If you didn't know the history of the area, this would just be like every other beautiful beach in Fort Pierce. This one-acre beach spot has a free parking area and a small pavilion with table. Next to the pavilion I discovered a Pandanus Utilis tree, also called common screw pine. It is actually not a pine tree at all, but is a monocot. The tree is native to Madagascar. I usually see them in botanical gardens. Hanging from the branches of the tree are softball sized spiky balls. It turns out you can eat them after cooking. I saw a video on the internet where the inside is pureed and turned into a dessert. Squirrels enjoy them too. The leaves of the tree can be dried and rolled into mats. In coastal areas like this, the trees can help prevent erosion. You can pick up the trail for the beach from the end of the parking lot. A sandy path takes you over the sand dune to a mostly deserted beach dotted with sea turtle nests. There are no restrooms or lifeguard but what Normandy Beach lacks in amenities it makes up for in secluded beauty. This park is enjoyed by area beach goers, swimmers, and fishermen.
