Around Vero Beach

You can learn quite a bit about Vero on a walk. On 14th Avenue, the old railway depot has a story about a dollar and a move. Across the lagoon on Ocean Drive, artists set up beside the beach on selected Sundays during the season. Start with a neighborhood, a piece of local history, or a story from the Journal.
