Vero Beach is perfectly situated on Florida’s Treasure Coast between Palm Beach and
the Kennedy Space Center. By car, Palm Beach is about an hour away and Orlando is
about an hour and a half away. Known as the “Gateway to the Tropics,” Vero Beach is
located in a climatic transition zone that offers an unusual mix of vegetation found in the
coastal Carolinas – ancient oak trees and pine forests – blended with swaying palms and
colorful blooms typical of the tropics.
Vero Beach has a lot to offer aside from sunshine, beaches, and water sports. There are
15 golf courses, 40 tennis courts, 20 racquetball courts, 3 theaters, 2 cinemas, 60
restaurants, 60 churches, 4 museums, a botanical garden, a baseball and football stadium,
boutique shopping, as well as malls and outlet malls.
