I lived in Martin County for 25 yrs. Nice place to snorkel years ago. Now it has alot of damage from people walking on the worm reef. I would say it is still a nice place to snorkel on the back side of the reef. On your way you can visit the House Of Refuge. A small history museum. Just north of that on the same side of Stuart beach is the Elliot museum and across the street from that is the Florida Oceanagraphic Society. Good nature walk, a couple of tanks( I helped and plumbed the first tanks that sit on the floor in 93), they have a new, very large saltwater pond and touch tanks. If you like to fish for snook and have a boat I've got some spots for you. Best two stores are Aquatic World 772 220 7700,453 SE Monterey Rd. Stuart. Ask for Rick. Fintastic Aquariums 772 692 9950. 3305 NE Main Avenue, Jensen Beach Carl or Mike or anyone there is best to ask for. I could go on but I better stop here. If you would like anymore info just e-mail me.
