Gold once washed ashore along Florida's Treasure Coast after powerful storms scattered the legendary 1715 Spanish Treasure Fleet. Today, the treasure is different-but it still rewards those who know where to look.Hidden Gold of Florida's Treasure Coast is not a relocation guide filled with statistics or a sales pitch disguised as a book. It is a reflective, experience-driven exploration of one of Florida's most distinctive coastal regions-written by someone who has lived in every community it describes.From Vero Beach's quiet luxury and Sebastian's authentic river-to-sea culture, to the creative resurgence of Fort Pierce, the ease of Jensen Beach, and the balanced waterfront life of Stuart, this book reveals what maps and listings never show: how places actually feel over time.Through history, local insight, real-life stories, and thoughtful observation, readers discover why so many people move to the Treasure Coast-and why so few leave once they arrive. The book gently reframes the idea of treasure, shifting from buried gold to something far more valuable: space, calm, access, and long-term fit.Whether you are considering a move, planning a visit, or simply curious about what makes this stretch of Florida different, Hidden Gold of Florida's Treasure Coast offers clarity without pressure and perspective without hype.The real treasure isn't buried anymore.It's lived.
