This is an outstanding museum you don't want to miss. We spent 4 hours going through all the exhibits. You can see it in half the time if you don't attend the 2 hour movie, but it is a highlight as it provides you the history of the Seals from beginning to present and we learned a lot. I highly recommend it. You will enjoy sitting in a black hawk helicopter, maybe seeing and petting a Navy K9 puppy, seeing Seal Delivery vehicles, maybe trying out the obstacle course, and getting a real appreciation for all the Seals do! You can even dress up for a photo opp!

10. Fort Pierce Farmers Market
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By jegbd - Yarmouth, Canada
The market is located right next to the waterfront in Fort Pierce. So many food and craft vendors. You can get anything from baked goods, guacamole and salsa, smoothies, crab cakes, breakfast, popcorn, fresh fruits and vegetables. One place we tried for baked goods which I can't remember the name but they had breads and muffins and cookies and their coconut macaroons were to die for. The fresh guacamole was also very delicious. Then on the other side all the craft vendors are set up and there are t-shirts, dresses, purses, jewelry, paintings, you name it. A fun place to check out if you're in the area. It's every Saturday morning.
