About Rocky Point
Set on a picturesque peninsula along Florida's Treasure Coast, Rocky Point is one of Stuart's most desirable waterfront communities. Residents enjoy the rare luxury of private waterfront homes with no fixed bridges and direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean, a true boater's address that blends Old Florida charm with modern coastal living.
Just minutes from the deep-water canals of the St. Lucie River, the fishing village of Port Salerno and historic downtown Stuart, Rocky Point delivers a lifestyle that is equal parts relaxed and refined, and it sits just 15 miles north of Jupiter via U.S. 1.
Tucked within Rocky Point, the prestigious Rocky Point Estates enclave offers more than 170 refined homes along the tranquil canals of the St. Lucie River. Residents who opt into the HOA enjoy a private park with a boat ramp and picnic areas, plus access to a 29-slip marina sized for vessels up to 30 feet. Many homes feature their own deeded docks and heavy-duty boat lifts with direct access to deep, open water and an unobstructed route to the inlet, true waterfront living for buyers who value both lifestyle and location.
The nearby village of Port Salerno is a charming remnant of Florida's fishing past, gently touched by today's waterfront dining scene. Dockside favorites like Shrimper's Grill, Two Georges Dockside Grille, King Neptune and The Pearl serve the day's freshest catch just minutes from home, the kind of unpretentious, on-the-water dining that defines this stretch of the Treasure Coast.
Rocky Point's green spaces make it feel worlds away from city life. Twin Rivers Park sits at the very tip of the peninsula with scenic walking paths and waterfront views, while nearby Maggy's Hammock Park is a local favorite for its shaded trails, native vegetation and birdwatching, a reminder of the preserved Old Florida that still surrounds the community.
A short drive north reaches downtown Stuart's boutique shopping, live music and waterfront Riverwalk restaurants. For essentials, residents have Publix, Sprouts Farmers Market and The Fresh Market close by, along with Sandsprit Park and area golf. With Jupiter just 15 miles south on U.S. 1, the best of the Palm Beaches stays within easy reach.
