EDITOR'S NOTE

The Barber Bridge

Welcome

A On The Cover

A sunset view from Quail Valley River Club’s dock on the Indian River Lagoon. The boat in the foreground was built by Pursuit, a local Fort Pierce business for over 40 years.

lright, so who told? Many have called Vero Beach “Florida's best kept secret” but I have a feeling we won't be saying that much longer. As a lifelong resident of Vero Beach, I can honestly say that none of us want our town to change. However, with new residents come interesting new businesses and more hands to help our nonprofit causes. Some things just get better, like our thousands of acres of green space, thanks to the community's dedication to preserving land and managing thoughtful development.

So, whether you are here for a vacation or Vero Beach’s charm has lured you to stay forever (it happens) – welcome! Our team designed the Official Vero Beach Handbook to help you find everything you are looking for, including places to dine, shop, catch a play, see some art and much more. Like the outdoors? It's all here, from golf to fishing to hiking, including guides to help you identify local flora and fauna. For the best way to meet new friends while helping the community, turn to our extensive section on volunteering.

For over 20 years, Vero Beach Magazine has been sharing stories about Vero Beach with readers in nearly very state in the U.S.. With that experience, we have lovingly compiled this handbook, so feel free to share it (but only with your very best friends).

Best wishes for wonderful Vero Beach adventures,

Niki Offutt, Managing Editor niki@verobeachmagazine.com

ero Beach, known as “The Jewel of the Treasure Coast” and the “Gateway to the Tropics,” is a place where spirits are lifted and friends are easily made. Those who have chosen to live here cherish what they have. Residents overwhelmingly voted to limit future building height to three stories and have diverted roads to preserve the expansive live oak canopies.

Everyone, in his or her way, has made it possible to preserve an enviable quality of life that continues to attract newcomers — artists, authors, doctors, educators, entertainers and retirees, people from all walks of life with talents, ideas and skills to share. Vero Beach, once called “Florida’s Best Kept Secret,” has been discovered and is loved.

Vero Beach History If you’re a history buff, one of the first things you want to find out is when and how Indian River County and the city of Vero Beach got their starts. So let’s take a look at the past. During the 1600s the area

1_KE_Past And Present_VBHB18.indd 24

was home to the Ais tribe of Native American Indians. The Seminoles soon followed. But take a step or two deeper since we now know from skeletal remains that at least five individuals had already staked their place along with Ice Age mammals. If that news didn’t shake things up enough, the 2009 discovery of a drawing of a prehistoric mammoth carved on a piece of bone, estimated to be between 13,000 and 20,000 years old, definitely did. This discovery was the first of its kind in the western hemisphere.

Now fast forward to 1893 when Henry Flagler’s Florida East Coast Railroad began making stops at Vero’s train station, effectively speeding up the influx of newcomers. Growth was inevitable, and those who envisioned the future began snapping up large tracts of land. By 1914, the town of Vero was beginning to take shape as roads, residential areas, parks and a business hub were carefully laid out.

Residents cheered when The Strand, the first movie theater, opened in 1917. A year later Vero had its first power plant, and two years later weekly copies of the Vero Press started rolling off the presses. The

slogan — “Vero, Where the Tropics Begins “ — became an instant marketing mantra. In 1924 the Florida Theater was established with 600 seats and an organ that played music while silent films featuring the likes of Charlie Chaplin and the Keystone Cops flickered on the screen. The new theater became the place to see and be seen.

Yet it wasn’t until 1925 that members of the Florida Senate passed a bill creating Indian River County and adding the word “Beach” to Vero, making it the county seat. In 1927, John J. Schumann took over the Vero Press and renamed it the Vero Beach Press-Journal. When rumors began circulating that Vero Beach was about to have an airport, newspaper headlines included the name of Bud Holman, who was instrumental in making the rumor become a reality in 1930. Two years later, Eastern Airlines began making refueling stops. Not long afterwards the air carrier added passenger and mail service. Vero Beach had become more than just a tiny dot on the map.

America’s love affair with the automobile led to an increase in the number of highways connecting cities and states. It didn’t take long before Route 60, which linked the Atlantic Ocean with the Gulf of Mexico, became heavily trafficked. The rush was on. Bridges connecting the mainland with Orchid Island, commonly known as the “barrier island,” spurred the development of beachside businesses and hotels

In 1994 the Dodgers and the Orioles played a spring training game at Holman Stadium.

6 Tips For Visitors

Treat your body well. Bring sunscreen with at least SPF 30 and wear it every day, along with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB rays. Staying hydrated is also important, so make a habit of carrying a bottle of water, especially on warm summer days.

2

Know the dress code. Vero Beach is a casual beach town, but some restaurants, bars and private clubs have restrictions, especially in the evening. For men, khakis or slacks with a collared shirt is the minimum.

Many country clubs and bars prohibit sandals and flip-flops for men. Women can wear skirts, pants or sundresses, and sandals are okay (but still no flipflops). The country clubs in Vero Beach are split on whether to allow denim and on requiring a jacket and tie for men in the evening. It’s always best to call ahead if in doubt. Please remember to silence your cell phone.

3

Don’t use your horn. Everyone in the surrounding cars will store your image in their minds and when they meet you again — this is a small town — they won’t remember you fondly. Just be patient.

4

Know the beach warning flags. Lifeguards post colored flags at Vero’s public beaches, each color having a different meaning. Make sure you learn what each colored flag means to ensure a safe, leisurely swim.

5

Pack insect repellent. Mosquitoes and sand flies (no-see-ums) are sometimes an annoyance, especially at dusk after rainy weather.

Relax. Visiting Vero Beach gives you the chance to escape from the stress of everyday life. Embrace your inner peace.

to accommodate the growing number of tourists. Citrus and cattle man Waldo Sexton built the Driftwood Inn, a rambling, two-story, oceanfront structure made of wood and flotsam-jetsam he had found washed up on the beach. The eccentric entrepreneur imprinted his signature style on the Ocean Grill, a landmark where it’s said a ghost roams the kitchen after the restaurant’s chefs have called it a night.

During World War II, the U.S. Navy commissioned a pilot-training station at the airport, and 1,400 service men and 250 planes moved in. After the war ended, the Navy closed the station, yet many of the pilots who had found sweethearts and made lifelong friends here returned, put down roots and contributed to the local economy.

The economy took a big boost in 1948 when the Brooklyn Dodgers came to town. Dressed in their red, white and blue uniforms, players smiled as Dodgertown, the baseball team’s new spring training complex, was officially dedicated. Four years later the sports

T H E 2018 O F F I C I A L V E R O B E AC H H A N D B O O K

venue was renamed Holman Stadium in honor of Bud, who was instrumental in bringing the Dodgers to Vero Beach. Baseball fans from near and far came to cheer “the home team” on. There wasn’t a hotel room to be found, restaurants added extra tables and chairs, and shop owners were busy ringing up sales. Life was good.

The more time people spent in Vero Beach, the more they wanted to live here. Developers had a heyday as demand for housing increased. New residents, many of them affluent patrons of the arts, devoted their energies and financial resources to creating a vibrant cultural community. The extent of their generosity can be seen on the walls, halls and stages of theaters, museums and concert halls that bear their names. As a result of their efforts, we are blessed with professional and community theater presentations, an outstanding museum of art as well as orchestra, symphony, opera and ballet performances.

Weather Vero Beach has an average of 232 sunny days per year, 27 more than the national average.

In the summer months, afternoon showers are common and usually followed by clear skies at sunset. The Atlantic hurricane season officially runs from June 1 until the end of November, although damaging storms are rare in Vero Beach. Thankfully, hurricanes are well-predicted with modern technology, allowing for an early and worry-free evacuation when necessary.

also an option, or call Able American Jets for concierge jet service.

More commercial flights are available at Melbourne International Airport (MLB). Only 39 miles north of Vero Beach, parking is accessible and affordable, security staff professional and helpful, and short-order fare is served up with a smile. The drawback: a limited number of carriers offer fewer flight and schedule options than larger airports.

Options abound at Orlando International Airport (MCO), the hub of many domestic and international airlines. The airport is 109 miles northwest of Vero Beach, on Semoran Drive off the Beachline Expressway (County Road 528). Long and short-term parking are available, as well as off-site parking locations with shuttle service. Shortcut tip: If you’re driving north on I-95, consider taking State Road 520 west, which links up with the Beachline closer to the airport.

Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) is 80 miles south of Vero Beach, off the I-95 Belvedere Road exit. Getting to PBI is a piece of cake. Long- and short-term parking is available; ditto rental cars, shuttle buses, taxis and ground transportation. â?–

or those seeking a place in the sun and a simpler way of life, Vero Beach, consistently voted one of the best small towns in America, is the place to be. Small-town hospitality meets big-city resources in our “Gateway To The Tropics.”

The Basics Indian River County, part of the 19th Judicial District of Florida, has a five-member board of commissioners and five constitutional officers: Tax Collector, Elections Supervisor, Property Appraiser, Sheriff and Clerk of the Circuit Court. All are elected positions. See www. ircgov.com. The City of Vero Beach is the county seat and operates under a council-manager form of government. The five-member city

036-061_KE_Living Here_VBHB18.indd 38

council appoints the city manager, city attorney and city clerk. Council members are elected. See www.covb.org for more information.

For those moving to the area, we’ve prepared a little cheat sheet that walks you through the basics of setting up a home in Vero Beach.

A good Realtor will be your best friend, giving recommendations and his or her own helpful guidance. One thing we did not mention in our list — the best way to meet people in Vero Beach is to volunteer at a local nonprofit that serves a topic you are interested in. See our volunteering list on page 174 for a complete list of local nonprofits.

One of the many bonuses to living in Florida is that it has no inheritance, state or gift taxes, making the Sunshine State particularly attractive to retirees. There is, however, a seven-percent sales tax that excludes medicines, medical services and food. When it comes to real estate taxes, property owners are assessed ad valorem — based

on the value of the property — and non-ad valorem taxes by the county, city, school districts and special districts, so be sure to take advantage of the Homestead Exemption if you can. Currently up to $50,000, the exemption is available to permanent resident homeowners living on the property as of January 1 of the tax year. The exemptions are also available for veterans, disabled individuals and widows.

If you’re a U.S. citizen 18 years of age or older and wondering where you can register to vote, wonder no longer. There are a number of places in Vero Beach you can go, including the library and some banks. If in doubt, go to the main source: the Supervisor of Elections located at 4375 43rd Ave., 772-226-3440.

Moving To Vero Beach?

Tips For A Smooth Transition

4 1

First, Find A Home

Visualize your ideal lifestyle and make a list of priorities.

Contact a local Realtor and ask for an overview of different neighborhoods and properties that offer your top qualifications; for example, private beach access,tennis courts or a manned gatehouse.

A Moving Experience

Make sure you choose a reputable, insured and licensed moving company. If possible, have them do most of your packing, too. Create a plan of where you want to place your furniture and boxes before they arrive at your new home. Put a tag on every box showing its predetermined room. Planning will save you a headache at the end. If you have too much stuff or just want to store things like holiday decorations off-site, there are many ministorage facilities in Vero Beach; make sure yours is air-conditioned.

Safe & Sound

Vero Beach is an extremely safe place, but we do get the occasional break-in. It’s always better to be safe than sorry. A good security system connects the alarm directly to local law enforcement.

036-061_KE_Living Here_VBHB18.indd 40

directly with your credit card companies, banks, friends and family (if you want them to find you).

Again, ask your Realtor which company they would recommend. We use BE SAFE SECURITY ALARMS at 772-7780052. Install the system before you move into your new home. Also, remember to change your door locks.

depend on your address. A good deal of helpful information can be obtained at www.ircrecycles.com. WASTE MANAGEMENT services most residences in Vero Beach, 772-569-1776. They provide one waste bin for garbage and one for recycling (you can get a different size bin if needed). Your date for pick-ups is set by location so call them for additional information. Indian River Shores uses REPUBLIC SERVICES, 772-562-6620. Visit www.irshores.com/recycling for additional information.

Republic Services uses different bins for garbage and recycling. Landfill sites will accept larger bulk waste items. Visit www.ircrecycles. com for more information.

If your home is in the City of Vero Beach or select areas of unincorporated Indian River County, visit the VERO BEACH CITY UTILITY DEPARTMENT, in person if possible,

at 1046 20th Street in Vero Beach. If your home is in any other area in the county, call FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT (FPL),

800-226-3545. Your Realtor can guide you to the proper place.

Cooking With Gas 5

If your kitchen or outdoor grill requires a gas line, call FLORIDA CITY GAS at 800-993-7546 or AMERIGAS for propane at 772-567-4394.

Getting Connected 6

be registered in the state of Florida. Bring your current vehicle registration and title to the Tax Collector’s office in building B of the County Administration Complex at 1800 27th Street. Then go to the driver’s license office in the same building with your new Florida license plates, your current driver’s license, title and registration.

For better service, make an on-line appointment before you go. You can also obtain hunting and fishing licenses at the Tax Collector’s office.

Make A Splash 11

Many Vero Beach homes have pools and spas, so a maintenance company is necessary to maintain cleanliness and chemical balance.

Saltwater chlorination is much better for your skin, so switch over if possible.

Green Is Good 12

Vero Beach has an abundance of small companies that offer mowing and sprinkler maintenance. Go for a larger company if you also need a landscape professional to manage trees, flowering vines and the rest of your garden.

& 13 Cleanliness Godliness

If possible, hire professionals to keep your home immaculate so you can spend your valuable time enjoying life in Vero Beach. Make sure they are licensed and bonded.

Creepy Crawlies 14

If you don’t want uninvited guests in your new home — this is a subtropical jungle, after all — a bug service will regularly treat the outside of your property and probably do an annual or bi-annual interior treatment. That is usually enough to deter little creeping surprises.

Windsor’s 18-hole championship golf course

Neighborhoods If you’re house hunting, you will be surprised and delighted to find many residential neighborhoods within the larger Vero Beach community, each with a distinct “flavor” of its own.

Private Residential Club Communities

Tennis is alive and well at GRAND HARBOR GOLF & BEACH CLUB where top-level amateur tennis players compete during United States Tennis Association-sanctioned tournaments and charity fundraising exhibitions. Two championship golf courses attract residents who take to the fairways year round, and boaters find a safe haven at Grand Harbor’s deep-water marina.

JOHN’S ISLAND CLUB, a river-to-ocean community in Indian River

036-061_KE_Living Here_VBHB18.indd 42

Shores, features three championship golf courses where the United States Golf Association held its 35th annual Mid-Amateur Tournament in October 2015. Yet there’s more to “JI” than golf, including Har-Tru tennis courts, air-conditioned squash courts, and beachfront and golf clubhouses offering fine dining and social events that attract people of all ages.

The member-owned MOORINGS YACHT & COUNTRY CLUB on south A1A purchased HAWK’S NEST GOLF CLUB, adding a second 18-hole course and clubhouse to the list of member-friendly features that includes a deepwater marina, Har-Tru tennis courts, a fitness center, a health spa and a pool. The country club on the Indian River Lagoon offers fine dining along with fine views.

ORCHID ISLAND GOLF & BEACH CLUB, an ocean-to-river community on north A1A, is described as “an intimate, private club” with an Arnold

Riomar is know for its oak-lined streets.

Palmer-designed 18-hole championship golf course sure to challenge even the lowest handicap player. Other amenities include a tennis center featuring Har-Tru courts, a fitness center, and a Beach Club with terrace bar, lounge, dining room and popular oceanfront pool.

Situated on the Atlantic oceanfront in a lush setting of live oaks and sabal palms, SEA OAKS has been recognized for both the special charm of its landscaping and ambiance, as well as its exceptional tennis program. Sea Oaks is one of only a few communities on Vero Beach’s barrier island with a full-service beach club.

For the horse enthusiast, WINDSOR, with its first-rate equestrian center and riding trails, is likely to be the community of choice. The New Urbanism architecture also appeals, as well as an 18-hole championship, links-style golf course and clubhouse with fitness center.

In-Town Residential Neighborhoods

The laid-back charm of CENTRAL BEACH is what draws homeowners to this barrier island neighborhood, bordered by Iris Lane on the south and Live Oak Road on the north. Ocean and Cardinal Drive restaurants, boutiques, hotels and businesses are within walking distance.

036-061_KE_Living Here_VBHB18.indd 44

T H E 2018 O F F I C I A L V E R O B E AC H H A N D B O O K

Riverside Park with its tennis courts, a walking and jogging trail, boat ramp, Memorial Island, the Vero Beach Museum of Art and Riverside Theatre, is but a short skip and hop away.

RIOMAR has been called the crown jewel of Vero Beach’s barrier island due in part to the neighborhood’s historical significance. Golf enthusiast Winchester Finch discovered the barrier island location in 1919, invited his Cleveland cohorts, and coined the name (translation: “river to sea”). The first houses were built on sandy shell-packed roads close to the clubhouse. While a handful still stand, over the years structural renovations and paved roads have left their mark on the neighborhood. Even so, the community’s intrinsic character remains; tradition is Riomar’s niche.

SOUTH BEACH ocean and riverside residential communities on A1A south of the Alma Lee Loy Bridge and north of Round Island, bear seafaring names the likes of Castaway Cove, Sandpoint and Oceanridge. Most are gated and deed-restricted. More often than not new residents are greeted by friendly neighbors bearing gifts.

The VERO BEACH COUNTRY CLUB, MCANSH PARK, and ROYAL PARK neighborhoods on Vero Beach’s mainland are close to churches, the public library, county administration building, courthouse, and best of all, a revitalized downtown arts and business district. Royal Park and McAnsh Park date back to the early 1920s, and many of the original homes representative of the architectural style of the era remain.

Estates, Farms, Ranches to the West

If it’s wide open spaces you’re looking for, Vero Beach has that, too.

Just west of the city, two new subdivisions are just getting their start: THE FARMS and HIDDEN HAMMOCK, both with five-acre lots for sale. If that doesn’t suit your fancy, you can find much more extensive acreage where you can build the house of your dreams and have space for children and horses to roam as well as all the privacy you could ever want. Plus, you can build a barn big enough to house all your toys.

Much of the landscape is old Florida, untamed and isolated. Wildlife and birds flourish. And if you really want to get into the spirit of old Florida, you might find a farm or grove with the original homestead available. Nowhere else in the county will you find the sweeping views and great dome of sky.

The Palm Reader

P

robably one of the most noticeable differences between the northern states and Florida is the ubiquitous palm tree. But, you might not have realized how many different types of palms there are. From Florida’s state tree, the sabal palm, to the stately royal palms that give Royal Palm Pointe its name, each has its unique place in Vero Beach’s tropical landscape. Here’s a guide to help you identify some of the palm trees you will see around town.

Coconut Palm The coconut palm is a most graceful palm and is especially beautiful when planted along an ocean beach or on the edge of the Intracoastal Waterway, where it will tend to arch over the water. The fruit and the milk inside it have recently been receiving a lot of attention as healthy additions to the diet.

Sabal Palm

C

The sabal, or cabbage, palm is native to Florida and is also the state tree. This stalwart palm, like most natives, is pretty much foolproof as far as maintenance is concerned. It is also salt tolerant and will not freeze.

Christmas Palm

Royal Palm

Grown as a solitary tree or in clumps of two or three trunks, this palm is ideal for the home landscape. It has several names of which Christmas palm and cherry palm refer to the bright red seeds or berries produced in the winter. it is also referred to as Manila palm and dwarf royal palm.

Aptly named, the royal palm is regal and majestic but, unfortunately, it grows too large for most residential landscapes. It is perfect, however, gracing the roadways of Royal Palm Pointe and makes up a magnificent collection within McKee Botanical Garden.

Chinese Fan Palm

Areca Palm

Sometimes called fountain palm, owing to the graceful fronds that overlap each other, the Chinese fan palm is easy to grow. The fans are a bright, shiny green and provide an interesting tropical ambiance.

The Areca palm is a clumping variety in that it continuously sends up new shoots from the ground. If nothing is done to control them, the resulting clump or clumps form a dense privacy screen. However, by carefully selecting canes to be removed, an attractive multitrunked palm can be created.

Senegal Date Palm

Bismarck Palm

Also a clumping palm, this one really does need to have shoots assiduously removed lest it becomes an unsightly thicket. When that is done the resulting multi-trunk palm is most handsome as a solitary specimen, perhaps gracing the center of a circular drive.

The Bismarck palm, a native of Madagascar, is strikingly beautiful owing to its massive star-shaped fans. And, also contributing to that regal appearance is the gorgeous silvery blue color. This is another palm best appreciated as a solitary specimen.

Keep Calm & Carry On

Stay Calm Storms are a way of life in the tropics. Being prepared is the surest way to help you feel calm and have time to help others.

Safe Keeping

Avoid the rush and purchase some hurricane supplies before the season begins, such as batteries, medications and batteryoperated fans. If a storm is forecasted for the area, stock up on enough water and non-perishable food to last a few days.

Fill your car with gas and withdraw plenty of cash in case banks and ATMs are closed due to power outages.

Have all of your legal documents and insurance papers in order and in a safe place.

It is also wise to put photos in waterproof storage.

Shutter Up If your home does not have impact windows and doors, secure it with shutters or plywood. Bring in all outdoor patio furniture and anything else that could become airborne.

LIVING HERE

While big storms don’t come every year and we are lucky to have plenty of notice when they do, we still need to have all of our ducks in a row before the summer months – specifically June 1 through November 30.

Here are a few tips to help you weather the stormy season. For more information, visit the City of Vero Beach’s storm information page at www.covb.com.

Buy Supplies

Power Plans Many families purchase generators to keep the fridge and essentials running. Ensure all of your electronics are charged before the storm arrives.

Unplug and Relax Think of power outages as an opportunity to bond with family and friends without distraction. Have books, board games, cards and puzzles on hand in case you lose electricity for a few hours. ❖

iscovering Vero Beach, with its sandy beaches stretching for miles along the Atlantic Ocean and the beauty of the Indian River Lagoon, is like finding the proverbial pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

No matter when you get here, even in mid-January when admittedly it can get a bit chilly every now and then, unpacking can wait.

Throw on a light-weight jacket or a sweater and head for the beach: check out the map on page 66. Folks who arrive pale and stressed leave tan and relaxed, a baggie full of shells and sea glass in their carry-ons. Help your children and grandchildren collect “lucky” sea

beans, that mysterious seed that has traveled thousands of miles over ocean currents before washing up on our beach.

Most people haven’t been lucky enough to find a doubloon, a ring or pieces of eight during their beach walks, but there are those who do. Optimistic treasure seekers continue to search sea and shore for fortunes believed to be on board the 11 Spanish ships that went down during the 1715 hurricane. In 1994 an on-and-off treasure hunter, diving in 8 feet of water near the Sebastian Inlet, discovered $1 million worth of jewels and gold coins from one of those sunken ships. Kind of gives you hope, doesn’t it?

OUTDOOR ADVENTURES

Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge

On Land Vero Beach pioneers and planners made it a point to set aside land for parks and recreational areas. Some — Pocahontas Park, Jaycee Park and Humiston Park — have playground equipment, while others — Round Island Park, South Beach Park and Jaycee Park — have shaded picnic pavilions.

As well as offering facilities for simple relaxation, many of these areas provide a wide range of outdoor activities that include everything from boating, camping, fishing and horseback riding to kayaking, tennis and walking trails. Some parks also offer picnic tables and children’s playgrounds. See www.covb.org for City of Vero Beach parks; www.ircgov.com for Indian River County parks; and www. floridastateparks.org for state parks. You won’t be disappointed.

Like to get out in the fresh air? Wander through semi-wilderness?

Strike out on your own? Vero Beach and Indian River County have just the places for you to explor.

THE ENVIRONMENTAL LEARNING CENTER

OSLO RIVERFRONT CONSERVATION AREA

When you discover the Oslo Riverfront Conservation Area (ORCA), you will be surprised because you are less than a mile from a shopping center and smack in the middle of a wilderness. ORCA has trails and boardwalks that meander through 298 acres of mature coastal hammock, scrubby flatwoods and wetlands. Some of the live oaks that dominate the hammock are hundreds of years old. Native plants include wild

coffee, myrsine, marlberry, firebush, native wildflowers, saw palmetto, cabbage palms and a wide array of other species. The Hammock Loop trail is full of birds and wildlife while the Scrubby Pine Flatwoods trail is at a higher elevation and contains bromeliads, large sand pines, saw palmettos and native wildflowers. The “Awesome Pine” is located in this area and has been documented as the largest slash pine in the world! The Coastal Wetlands

trail leads to a large wildlife observation tower over a pond, an observation platform and a canoe dock that connects to the Indian River Lagoon.

Just to the south of the main ORCA is the South Oslo Riverfront Conservation Area or “SORCA,” a scrubby flatwoods community with native songbirds, woodpeckers, squirrels and other wildlife. www.ircgov.com ....................................................772-778-7200

Sebastian Inlet has been a draw for three generations of surfers.

Boat tours of all shapes and sizes are just waiting for your call. These charters are piloted by seasoned captains that know where the tarpon, snapper and grouper are biting on any given day. The options are endless.

By the way, Sebastian Inlet State Park is known to be a premier saltwater fishing location, prompting serious, and not so serious, anglers to head for the jetties and closeby shore areas.

rocks and provide habitat for a diverse range of sea life. In addition, we have four artificial reefs along the beaches of Indian River County, about 200 to 300 feet off shore. The first is located along the south beach of Vero Beach at a depth of 38 feet. The remaining three were placed in 1999 by the Indian River County Government and are located at depths of 66, 71 and 73 feet along the beach front of Vero Beach. Not only do we have reefs, we also have the wreck of the Breconshire within easy swimming distance of the shore. And don’t forget the silver plate and gold coins that lie close to the beach, the result of the wreck of the Spanish treasure fleet in 1715. If you are interested in renting equipment or you want to take diving lessons, get in touch with DEEP SIX DIVE AND WATERSPORTS and get ready to “take a dive.”

MacWilliam Park, Round Island and Oslo Riverfront Conservation Area are just a few places to launch a kayak.

while surfers were flying over waves, filmmakers were busy making surfing movies, none memorable. What remains memorable is that 13 years ago “Surfing” magazine named Sebastian one of the “15 Waves that Fuel Surfing’s Future,” but we already knew that, didn’t we? Don’t forget Monster Hole located about 1/3 mile off the beach on the south side of Sebastian Inlet. The contour of the ocean floor rises up; and when the surf is big, the waves form long lines, giving a long ride. Locals also frequent Wabasso Beach and Spanish House. Take lessons or rent a board from DEEP SIX DIVE and head out on your own or with your family.

And let’s not forget the hottest new water sport to come along — paddleboarding. Unlike surfing, you can paddleboard on oceans, lakes, rivers and lagoons. Vero Beach offers all of these exciting venues. Take a lesson or rent a board from the same folks who provide surf boards and surf lessons.

Take a paddleboard eco-tour or just get out on the water and have some fun and get a workout at the same time. It’s a great sport for the whole family. No prior experience is necessary.

If you love to swim, Vero Beach is the place to be. Not only is the ocean a favorite “swimming hole,” but we also have public pools at the North County Aquatic Center, Gifford Aquatic Center and Leisure Square. Modest fees apply.

Name That Bird

M M M

Yes, y

From armadillos to wild boar, Vero Beach has a definite wild side

A

century ago, Indian River County was a subtropical “Wild West.” There were wild boars on the barrier islands, for example, while bobcats and panthers held domain on the mainland. Development has impacted the range of some of those creatures, but Vero Beach is still a great place to witness wildlife of all kinds — from tiny tree frogs to hefty alligators.

The most sociable of our native neighbors are undoubtedly the abundant local birds. To help identify them, here is a guide to Vero Beach’s 13 most common feathered friends.

1.

2.

GREAT EGRET. Also called the white egret or American egret, this bird stands about 3 feet tall, with a wingspan of 4½ feet. It’s pure white with black legs and a pointed yellow bill. Like the other herons and egrets on this list, great egrets wade in the shallows around pilings and jetties, searching for small fish, crustaceans and insects. During the summer, adults have greenish skin around their eyes and grow four or five white lacy feathers on their backs. These are called “aigrettes,” a French word meaning a tiara of feathers and gemstones, from which “egret” is derived.

SNOWY EGRET. These, too, are pure white, but smaller, with 3-foot wingspans, slender black bills, black legs and bright yellow feet. Snowies and great egrets can become quite habituated to humans and often accompany fishermen on docks or bridges in hopes of a handout. Like the great egret, they acquire elegant, lacy white breeding plumage during the summer. This trait almost led to their extinction a century ago, when ornate plumes and bird wings were popular decorations on ladies’ hats.

Great Egret

Snowy Egret

Great Blue Heron

3.

GREAT BLUE HERON. At 4 feet tall, this is the largest and most majestic of the local herons. Bluish-gray with a white crown and throat, a long black crest and pointed yellow bill, great blues have a wingspan of almost seven feet and are capable of flying 30 miles per hour. Aloof and territorial, they often supplement their diet with mice, snakes and lizards, insects and other baby birds.

4.

TRICOLORED HERON. Also called the Louisiana heron, this graceful wader is sometimes mistaken for the great blue, but is more slender and smaller by half. It is blackish-purple, with a black pointed bill, gray legs and feet, a white underbelly and a whitish patch on its back. Audubon referred to it as “the lady of the waters.”

5.

LAUGHING GULL. These little pirates are readily recognized by their cry, described as a strident “ha-ha-ha-haaa.” Although smaller than other common gulls, they’re among the largest of Florida’s “hooded” gulls, with a wingspan of about 3½ feet.

They’re bold, inveterate thieves, and sometimes land on the heads of swimming brown pelicans to steal food or, apparently, just to hitch a ride.

6.

WILLET. Willets are sandpipers, but among the largest. Light brownish-gray with white underparts, they stand about a foot tall and have gray legs and a straight gray dark-tipped bill. Their name comes from their call, which sounds like “pill-will-willet.”

7.

SANDERLING. Flocks of these endearing, nimble little sandpipers constantly chase the tideline back and forth along the beach, their matchstick legs a blur. In winter they’re the palest members of the sandpiper family; in summer their plumage is rust-colored.

Their favorite snack is sand fleas.

8.

WHITE IBIS. Once worshipped by the ancient Egyptians, this graceful, medium-sized wader is white with black wing tips, pink facial skin, and a yellowish, downward curved bill. Its legs and bill turn pink in the summer. The most abundant wading bird in South Florida, it often congregates in huge flocks.

BLACK SKIMMER. The skimmer has a black back and crown, white underparts, red legs and a mostly white, scissor-shaped tail. It feeds on small fish skimmed from the surface as it flies just above the waves, its lower bill cleaving the sea like a knife blade. It’s the only bird in the world with a lower bill longer than its upper bill, which gives it a charming, sly expression (someone once said the black skimmer was oddly reminiscent of Maurice Chevalier in a tux). Sometimes a flock of skimmers will attempt to nest on a gravel rooftop rather than the beach. If this happens at your home or office, leave them alone and let nature take its course (and thank heaven for little birds!).

10. BROWN PELICAN. Easily the most popular bird in Florida, brown pelicans are intelligent, personable and playful. They may seem abundant, but during the 1960s the presence of DDT in prey fish caused pelicans to lay defective eggs, leading to their decline in Florida and extinction in Louisiana. After the pesticide was banned they made a comeback and were finally taken off the endangered species list a few years ago. Big, stocky birds with brown bodies, light gray backs and whitish heads with yellow foreheads, they have long bills with huge, flexible pouches that hold almost three gallons of water.

11. ROYAL TERN. Terns are similar to gulls but usually smaller and more streamlined, with longer, more pointed bills and deeply forked tails. White with grayish wingtips, orange bills and black caps or crests, royal terns are “plunge-feeders” and spend much of their time flying over the waves in search of small fish.

Black Skimmer

Brown Pelican

Double-Crested Cormorant

12. DOUBLE-CRESTED CORMORANT. These medium-sized diving birds are seen on nearly every pier or jetty. They’re black, with big, webbed feet, piercing turquoise eyes and an orange throat patch. Cormorants are capable of staying underwater more than a minute and diving to a depth of 100 feet. They’re frequently confused with the anhinga, but can be identified by the strongly curved tip on their beaks. The “double crest” refers to two tufts of feathers that appear on their heads during mating season.

According to an ancient Chinese proverb, “The beginning of wisdom is to call things by their right name.” Certainly, the more we know about our wild birds, the more we value them. Without wild birds, the beaches and bays would be unimaginably empty. And if you find a bird that’s sick or wounded, please call the regional office of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission at 352-732-1225, who will provide the name and address of a local wildlife rehabilatator.

13. WOOD STORK. The only stork found in the United States, these birds have white bodies with black tails and black flight feathers.

Their heads and upper necks are bald. They’re quite large, standing almost 4 feet tall, and feed on small fish by shuffling around in the shallows probing the muddy water with their bills, which can snap shut in 25 milliseconds, something of a record among vertebrates. Although they’re often seen in Florida waters, ornithologists estimate their population has declined more than 80 percent since 1930 because of habitat destruction.

an JOHN’S ISLAND CLUB: WEST COURSE

The West Course is located on the mainland six miles from John’s Island Club on the barrier island and was the host to the 2015 USGA Mid-Amateur Championship. This 300-acre course was designed by Tom Fazio and built on a natural sand ridge that features stunning elevation changes.

It has been ranked among the most challenging courses in the country.

088-105_KE_Golf _VBHB18 ALPHA.indd 94

Because it is built in a secluded area without home sites, members can enjoy an array of wildlife as well as the course’s natural beauty. www.johnsislandclub.org ....................................................772-231-1700

HAWK’S NEST

Golf course architect Jim Fazio was commissioned in 1983 to design an 18-hole, par-72 course that would fit the “natural look” of the land with tall pine and oak trees abundant on the property. Because of this, Hawk’s Nest is one of the few “green courses” left in Florida. Long-needled pines, live oaks and nature line the fairways.

This, combined with the sand ridge

that it was built on which forms the boundaries of the fairways, make this a golfer’s dream challenge. Long holes, none exactly the same, and sand dunes along the fairways beckon a player’s ball. Hawk’s Nest, a Moorings Yacht & Country Club course, enjoys a reputation as one of the area’s finest courses.

POINTE WEST COUNTRY CLUB

Rising from an old citrus grove, the course at Pointe West was developed in 1999. Striking bunker complexes were created to highlight subtle mounding, and some unique features were incorporated for several “risk/reward” situations. Most notably, the 18th

RedStick Golf Club Riomar Country Club

REDSTICK GOLF CLUB

RedStick maintains a highly exclusive reputation with only 275 members and is strictly a golf club: no pools, no tennis courts, no dinners. Lying on a sand ridge that runs through the county, RedStick was designed by honorary member Rees Jones, one of America’s renowned golf course architects. The result? A course with sweeping fairways of Bermuda grass,

088-105_KE_Golf _VBHB18 ALPHA.indd 100

surrounded by oaks and pines. Sixty acres of land were excavated to use for fill on the course and, as a result, created six ponds. The sand ridge is 38 feet above sea level and provides a rolling terrain that challenges any level of golfer.

RIOMAR COUNTRY CLUB

Built in 1919, Riomar Country Club is located in the heart of the central beach area, and is the oldest golf course in Vero Beach. It has seven holes that run along the Atlantic Ocean, more than any other course in Florida.

Although it underwent a massive renovation by Tom Fazio II and Nick Price in 2015, Riomar Country Club remains an “Old Florida” style course — generally

flat terrain covered in Bermuda grass, accentuated by tropical flora, water hazards and plenty of sand.

The Vero Beach Country Club course was originally laid out in the 1920s.

Since the late 1990s, the layout and quality of the course have been enhanced. Fairway and green contouring has increased shot variety.

Each hole is distinct and challenges the golfer with a range of risk-reward

088-105_KE_Golf _VBHB18 ALPHA.indd 102

strategies involving the wind, doglegs, strategically placed bunkers, oak and palm trees, lakes and perimeter canals, and greens. The result is a course of unusual variety.

The greens are placed against a rolling panorama of Florida native trees that border the softly rolling fairways. The subtle par-72 course is unobstructed by housing and is appreciated more

with each round of play.

The play is set on the night of Dec. 4, 1956, one of the most extraordinary nights in music history, when Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins ended up in the same recording studio at Sun Records. “Lombardi” follows from Jan. 30 to Feb. 18, featuring Vince Lombardi, one of the greatest sports legends of all time. The play follows his life, ambitions and inspirational character. Next comes “Gypsy,” with music

by Jule Styne, from March 6 to 25.

“Mamma Mia,” the smash Broadway and international hit, is from April 10 to 29. At the Waxlax Center for the Performing Arts, “The Mystery of Edwin Drood” runs from Jan. 16 to Feb. 4. This award-winning musical based on an unfinished novel by Charles Dickens is both comical and interactive in its attempt to solve the murder of Edwin Drood. “Buyer and Cellar” runs from March 20 to April 8 and features Alex More, an amateur actor who accepts a job in a Malibu basement. He soon finds out that the basement belongs to Barbra Streisand, and the two characters form a connection.

Music Music has been making Vero Beach go round since the first settlers arrived humming happily. It didn’t take long before banjo players, drummers, piano players and other instrumentalists got together and struck up the band. Sopranos, altos, tenors and basses took note, forming vocal groups that performed in churches and concert halls. It’s no secret that singing is good for the soul.

According to researchers at Oxford University, it’s also good for making new friends. After studying a group of adults ages 18 to 83 who didn’t know each other before they started singing together, researchers concluded that singing can make us happier and more willing to bond with others.

Over the years the number of musical offerings in Vero Beach has increased. From opera and orchestra performances to choral concerts galore, there’s something for everyone.

ATLANTIC CLASSICAL ORCHESTRA

The Atlantic Classical Orchestra opens its season Jan. 17 with Masterworks I featuring Bernstein and Beethoven in “Ode to Love, Ode to Joy.” The orchestra segues into Masterworks II, ”Songs & Dances,” on Feb. 15, featuring the works of Prokofiev, Barber and Schumann.

Museums Interested in the past? Here in Vero Beach and Indian River County, we are very proud of our heritage. Historical museums give us the chance to look at our shared history and the events that have made us who we are. From historic homesteads like Hallstrom Farmstead and the Laura (Riding) Jackson house that show the way that people lived in the past to the treasure museums that have given the Treasure Coast its name, to the National Navy UDT-SEAL Museum that chronicles the rise of that famous group of warriors who have given so ceaselessly to preserve our country, we have something for everyone.

Want to know more about the best citrus in the world? Try the Indian River Citrus Museum. How about the local fishing industry?

The Sebastian Inlet State Park Fishing Museum can fill you in on that.

Then our two local historical societies — Indian River County Historical Society and Sebastian River Historical Society — have museums that take you into the distant past. The Indian River Historical Society is located in the original Vero Beach railroad station, a major factor in the expansion of Indian River County. The Sebastian River Historical Society, located in the 1927 Historic Sebastian School, offers a glimpse of the Ais Indians as well as the agricultural and commercial interests that have made the area the place to live and work.

T H E 2018 O F F I C I A L V E R O B E AC H H A N D B O O K

These museums collect, preserve, interpret and display items of social, cultural or historical significance for the education of the public. They tell who we are and where we came from and how we interpret our past. So spend a pleasant afternoon exploring one of these interesting museums or spend a day or two exploring all of them! It’s an enlightening way to spend an hour or a day or even two.

The Joy of Shopping

A

day of shopping in Vero Beach is an adventure. Far from mass-marketed products found elsewhere, local shops offer unique, handmade and sophisticated items from around the world. One of the best things about shopping locally is the stressfree experience, due in part to the walkable shopping districts near parks and cafĂŠs. Ocean Drive even has three ice cream parlours for a refreshing afternoon treat!

The following list is an overview of the Vero Beach shopping experience — there are many more places to discover than we could possibly include here. One thing is certain, though: if you are looking for something special, you will find it in Vero Beach.

158-173_KE_Shopping _VBHB18.indd 160

Shopping Districts Beachside ALONG A1A

Pelican Plaza and The Village Shops Pelican Plaza is home to jewelry, gift and clothing shops, as well as a popular dry cleaner and barber shop. A gallery and liquor store are also found here, as well as professional services to help

with everything from skin care to computer problems. The adjoining Village Beach Market is a gourmet market with an array of delectable treats. A visit to the Village Shops, northeast of Pelican Plaza, is like strolling in a small town, with an elegant collection of clothing and shoe boutiques, a fine art gallery, interior design services and accessories, an Italian market, a stationery store, spa services and a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating.

Discover Something Beautiful At Ocean Drive Jewelers Ocean Drive Jewelers presents a distinct boulder opal pendant designed and hand-crafted by master jeweler Taso. Every opal is “one of a kind� due to the phenomenon called play-of-colors, a color change noted in the stone as it is rotated and tilted. Taso has been in the jewelry industry for over five decades, designing unique pieces for exclusive clientele from all over the world. He specializes in redesigning aged pieces into new works of art.

OCEANSIDE DOWNTOWN

Ocean Drive, Cardinal Drive and the eastern end of Beachland Boulevard This is a great setting for a day of leisurely strolling, shopping and dining next to the Atlantic Ocean. Tree-lined sidewalks with benches invite visitors to meander through this district, only steps away from the beach. The boutiques in this area are known for their one-of-a-kind and unusual products, alongside top international brands of apparel, jewelry and home goods. Hotels, restaurants, spas and professional services can also be found here, as well as a local post office.

Public beaches run parallel to this shopping district, and Humiston Park with its playground and picnic tables is perfect for families. Parking is available in two public parking lots and on the

street. A Saturday morning farmers market on Ocean Drive has local produce, baked goods, handmade soaps and other unique gifts.

MIRACLE MILE

The area referred to as Miracle Mile is actually a series of adjoining shopping

centers with two major supermarkets, restaurants, an independent book store and consignment shops, as well

Vero Beach Mainland HISTORIC DOWNTOWN VERO BEACH

Vero Beach’s original downtown was the center of our community in the 1920s but gradually lost prominence.

Now, however, it is experiencing a rebirth as fine art galleries, restaurants and original boutiques have moved in.

Galleries and businesses host the First Friday Gallery Stroll from 5 to 8 p.m. on the first Friday of every month along 14th Avenue.

The Indian River Mall and the Vero Beach Outlets are both located at the western end of Route 60 in Vero Beach, as well as Home Depot, Lowe’s, Target, and many other national chain stores and restaurants.

ROYAL PALM POINTE

Originally the site of the Barber Bridge’s west terminus, Royal Palm Pointe is now a peninsula of shops, restaurants and residences culminating in a public riverfront park with a children’s play fountain. Marine, medical and professional services are also found here, surrounded by beautiful views of the Indian River Lagoon. It’s another great place for walking, shopping and dining!

Shop locally for the perfect gift.

U.S. 1

If you have spent any length of time on the east coast of this country, you are familiar with U.S. 1 (sometimes referred to as the Post Road). In Vero Beach, as in most towns, this road is lined with fast food restaurants and gas stations. Here, however, independent boutiques, garden centers and local designers’ warehouse shops are thriving if you know where to look.

F

or over 20 years Vero Beach Magazine has published articles about individuals who give of their hands, hearts, talents and treasures to help others. When asked why community service is such an important part of their lives, the answer is almost always the same: “I get back more than I give.” While it’s not always easy to find the time to help others, when you do, the personal rewards are well worth it. You not only make a real difference to those who need support, you make new friends and learn new skills. No matter how young or old you are, helping others can add more zest to your life.

The following list divides our local nonprofits into categories.

Find one you like and join in. They and the people they serve will all appreciate your help!
