Blind Creek
The Clothing Optional Blind Creek is definitely the most secluded beach with 1.5 miles of remote beachfront along the Atlantic Ocean. The beach is smaller, doesn’t see as much traffic and doesn’t have lifeguards on duty, which makes it a great place for a beach walk. The area is popular for surf fishing and beach combing and includes various natural environments with a coastal dune, coastal strand, maritime hammock and tidal swamp. The most quiet beach in the Port St. Lucie area!
