Maybe it should go without saying, but a Martin County beach vacation just isn’t complete without a trip (or several) to our beautiful beaches! Soak up the sun, and enjoy tons of fun, on Stuart, Bath Tub and Jensen Beach, the guarded beaches on Hutchison Island.  There are also several more unguarded beaches on Hutchison Island where you can watch fisherman from the shore. Why pick just one spot? Try them all and find your favorite!

What’s SUP?

Want something more active than sunbathing, but more low-key than surfing? The best way to “sight-sea” is on a stand-up paddleboard, a.k.a. SUP for short. Take a leisurely SUP trip up the waterway and see if you can spot the manatees, dolphins, or even the occasional sea turtle. Catch a sunset, and enjoy the best views you’ll find anywhere. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned pro, there’s no better place in South Florida (or dare we say, the world) for SUPing than Martin County.
