What's at Vero Beach

Vero Beach is also home to general aviation manufacturer New Piper Aircraft, which build splanes there. New Piper Aircraft is the largest private employer in Indian River County. Major Vero Beach industries also include citrus fruit packing and tourism.

Vero Beach is especially known for its outstanding beaches. Part of Florida's Treasure Coast, it is situated north of South Florida's Gold Coast and just south of Sebastian Inlet, the Surf Capital of the East Coast. Vero's beaches combine excellent sand quality with significant surf and tidal action, which appeals to beach strollers, surfers, and boogie-boarders alike. Vero's main public beach is known as South Beach, accessible at the Eastern End of Causeway Boulevard. Vero also features Humiston Park and Jaycee Beach as its other primary public beaches.

The Driftwood Inn, located in Vero's central beach business district, is a historic hotel constructed in the early 20th Century by the late local eccentric and explorer Waldo Sexton. Originally built entirely from pieces of driftwood and other antiques, it is a popular tourist destination. Other popular city locations include several parks, most notably Riverside Park, which is the home of Riverside Theater and the Vero Beach Museum of Art. Other points of interest include the Vero Theatre and the McKee Botanical Garden. Vero Beach is also the location of Dodgertown, where the Los Angeles Dodgers have held their spring training camp since 1948, and the minor league Vero Beach Devil Rays play there during the regular season.
