This hidden gem is known for its uncrowded beaches and tranquil environment, where residents can enjoy morning walks along the shore, surf the waves, or simply relax in the sand. This is a boater and fishermans paradise, with most homes having private docks and boat lifts. Tarpon, snook, and redfish are just a few of the species routinely caught from neighborhood docks. Dolphins and manatees are an everyday sight from your backyard! This waterfront community is bordered on the west by the Mullet Creek Islands, a natural preserve in the Indian River, that is a sought after destination for kayaking, boating and fishing.
