Location and History

"Treasure Coast" is a term used to describe the South Florida region that lies just north of Palm Beach County. Depending on the source, you may find some variations in the Treasure Coast's specific boundaries. In general, the area stretches from Sebastian in the north to Hobe Sound in the south. Although many people also include Jupiter, just south of Hobe Sound, as part of the Treasure Coast. The name "Treasure Coast" is derived from a number of ships of Spanish galleons that wrecked off the coast during the 17th and 18th centuries. Artifacts from these ships have been recovered in the past fifty years.

Port St. Lucie is the largest city in the Treasure Coast, and it has seen tremendous growth over the past decade. Though the city began as a largely residential area, business sectors and recreational attractions soon followed.
