The Best Things to Do in Stuart, Florida
Stuart is a gem on Florida's Treasure Coast. Known for its laid-back atmosphere and easy access to the water, Stuart gives residents and visitors plenty of activities to enjoy any time of the year. Whether you're new to the Stuart area or have been vacationing in this community for decades, you can enjoy these popular indoor and outdoor activities.
Fishing and Boating
Stuart is known as the "Sailfish Capital of the World," making deep sea fishing a popular activity in this beachside town. But fishing in the Atlantic Ocean is not the only activity residents and visitors enjoy. Fishing is permitted inland on the Indian River Lagoon and St. Lucie River. Launch your boat or fish from the pier at a Stuart park — the choice is yours!
Golfing
While the Stuart area features many private golf course communities — which offer homes on the golf course — there are public access golf courses available for tee times. Play your choice of challenging fairways on the Martin County Golf Course (which is part of the Florida Historic Golf Trail), The Champions Golf Club, or Martin Downs Golf Club.

Care for a stroll through yesteryear? Downtown Stuart's quaint historic district has colorful buildings filled with trendy boutiques, art galleries, and local restaurants. Eager to shop for your favorite national brands? Visit Stuart Centre or Regency Square off of Route 1, the B & A Flea Market, or Treasure Coast Square mall in nearby Jensen Beach.
