Welcome to Port Saint Lucie, FloridaPort Saint Lucie, Florida, also known as “A City for All Ages,” is located on the East coast of Florida, about 130 miles south of Orlando, 50 miles North of West Palm Beach and about an hour drive East from Lake Okeechobee.
The rapidly expanding community of Port Saint Lucie, Florida was founded only in 1958 and became a city in 1961. Famous Florida developers caught site of this wondrous area and decided, with great foreshadowing, this would be a place people would love to live. Around 1970 when the developing slowed down and people started to really move in, the population of Port Saint Lucie was a mere 330 people. Over the years word got out and in 1996 the population had grown to around 73,000 and in 2005 it was estimated at 131,000! Clearly, this city has something to offer to everyone.

Check them out for an afternoon while they are in town at Thomas J. White Stadium. Make a quick drive to the beach for some quality Florida sun and beach time, or down to Stuart for extraordinary fishing.
