About Vero Beach
The Vero Beach wiki gives us these details:
“Vero Beach is a city in Indian River County, Florida. According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2006 estimates, the city had a population of 16,939. It is the county seat of Indian River County. Vero Beach is a Principal City of the Sebastian–Vero Beach Metropolitan Statistical Area, which is home to 130,100 people.
Vero Beach is the location of Dodgertown, where the Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team held their spring training camp from 1948 until 2008 when it moved to a new facility in Glendale, Arizona. The stadium was also the home to the minor league Vero Beach Devil Rays; however, in August 2008 the franchise was sold to the Ripken Baseball Group and did not return to Vero Beach for the 2009 season. In 2009, Dodgertown was leased to Minor League Baseball, and there is no word yet if a new team will make it its home.
Piper Aircraft Inc. builds aircraft here. Major industries include citrus fruit packing and tourism.”
The Beaches
Again from the wiki, we get this info on local beaches:
“The beaches in Vero Beach are part of Florida’s Treasure Coast. Vero’s main public beach is known as South Beach, accessible at the eastern end of Causeway Boulevard, State Road 656. It is a very large, guarded beach that is used for sports. There are two volleyball courts and space to play other sports. There are two pavilions with barbecues and a bathroom with vending machines.
Another public beach is Humiston Park, in Vero’s Central Beach Business District. Humiston is a guarded beach. It has a playground and boardwalk.
Jaycee Park is adjacent to Conn Beach which is guarded and has a boardwalk extending southward approximately 2/3 of a mile along Ocean Drive. Jaycee Park has about fifteen pavilions, all with barbecues. It has a small playground and a long boardwalk. Jaycee Park is also were Seaside Grill is located. Seaside Grill is a local mom and pop restaurant located on the beach open for breakfast and lunch daily.
The unguarded beach between Conn and Humiston is frequently used by skim boarders, fishermen, and occasionally by surf boarders although the surf is rarely high enough for extensive surfing.
Vero Beach also has other public access trails and walkways with beach access.”
