BEACH UPDATE, TUESDAY, 10/15/24


We are sorry to report that the gates to Blind Creek Beach are again locked as of today, Tuesday 10/15/24. Apparently, they were opened on Saturday without authorization. The park remains closed until such time that the County can declare that it is safe for public use. Once that authorization occurs, the County will unlock the gates. The County hopes to have this done by the end of the week, but no promises.

As of 2pm today, the Sheriff's Department was removing people from the beach who had parked on A1A and walked in.

The County asks that beachgoers do not open the gate or damage the chain lock. They will reopen the gates when they've determined that it is safe to do so.

Thank you to everyone who came out over the weekend and assisted with the massive cleanup! Those efforts should go a long way in getting the beach reopened sooner than later.

We will continue to communicate with the County, and let you know as soon as we have an update.

Blind Creek is a clothing optional beach on Hutchinson Island near Ft. Pierce, FL Here is a link for info: Link. We will be there for the month of November- sure hope it's reopened by then!

Thanks for re-posting. Hoping they will re-open soon.

Update
Not looking good for the weekend

St. Lucie County posted a service interruption alert for St. Lucie County.
10h ·
St. Lucie County Parks crews worked late into the evening to reopen Blind Creek Beach and Walton Rocks Beach starting Saturday, Oct. 19.
However, White City Park remains closed due to high water levels from the King Tides and heavy rains from Hurricane Milton.
We appreciate everyone's patience and understanding as many county crews have been diverted from their normal duties to assist with relief and recovery efforts from Hurricane Milton.

TCN & BLIND CREEK BEACH HAPPENINGS

Blind Creek Beach is Open!

The gates to Blind Creek Beach were reopened on October 19th after the County determined the area was again safe for usage. Our thanks go out to St Lucie County Parks & Recreation for their work to restore the park. The parking lot has been regraded and is now in good shape. As for the beach itself, it was a bit narrow after the storms but is slowly coming back. However, we may still see a narrow beach due to king tides.

What are King Tides?

King Tides are exceptionally high tides that occur when the moon is closest to the earth and is either full or new. In Florida, King Tides are most common in the Fall, when seasonal factors like water temperature and currents cause sea levels to rise.

High King Tides are anticipated on these dates:
Oct 30 - Nov 4
Nov 13-18
Nov 29-30

Due to the higher-than-average tides, we may still see debris washing up on the beach. Why not make everyday beach cleanup day? Bring a trash bag when you visit and pick up any debris near your encampment. Our thanks to those beachgoers who regularly make a habit of keeping our beach the cleanest in the County!
