Jensen Beach, Florida's Treasure Coast
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- We spend a weekend away from the hustle and bustle of Miami in this laid back Old Florida town: Jensen Beach in Martin County. See you on the road, riding with my RV
Jensen Beach is located in Martin County, Florida, in an area north of Palm Beach and south of Cape Canaveral forgotten by time. Here, life a lot more laid back and high rise condos are few and far between.
In this week’s video we visit a small town in the Treasure Coast of Florida. The name of the coast originated from the loss of the Spanish Treasure Fleet in a 1715 hurricane in these shores. It is a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, being just over two hours away. This is also the Indian River Lagoon area. The lagoon is the large body of water between the barrier islands and the mainland.
We are staying at the Pitchford RV and Mobile Home Park, which is so old school that they don’t even take credit cards. We know it is going to be a great time, exactly what we need. Beside the beach, we also sample the local cuisine, visit a historic site called the House of Refuge, the fishing village of Salerno, and neighboring Stuart.

Love me some Jensen, having a home constructed there, can't wait to relocate and enjoy the bar closing at 9:30 pm :)
Just back from Florida. First time. Drove to orlando, clearwater, daytona and down to Miami. Nobody signals! 😂 awesome time. Cant wait to go back. Greetings from Ireland Robert
+macpac22 O yes. Miami is crazy driving. Greetings.
Hey Robert, just want to thank you for another great video. I enjoy how you put them together.... you not only show the campground and give it an honest rating, But you also saw the local restaurants, shops, Beach and activities, and rate them....Thank you, and again keep up the good work!!
Your music has a good beat to it, you are full of talent
We love your videos! Thank you Robert & Ileana for providing these videos. God has given you your mission in life. You bring joy, happiness and information into our lives. God bless you both!
wow I like that sounds is bringing back memories back home Miami I like them crickets sound they have a lot in West Palm Beach
Enjoyed looking back at Jensen. We lived there in late 70's right off Indian River Dr.
+Susan Strickland I bet it hasn't changed all that much.
Very much enjoyed! The sea turtle was a great find! Enjoyed seeing the band by the water....very cool!
+Chris R Thanks!
You are so right Robert. RV parks and railroads go hand in hand. Great Job as always! thanks for sharing.
Robert. You are in my home town. I love Jensen. Lived here for 16 yrs.
Ignoring Traveling Robert at the bar !!?? Outrageous ! Drinks should have been on the house :) . Thanks for letting us ride along. Good job !
Boy this video took me back! 3 day weekends, blue crab fishing, looking for hatching sea turtles, good times!
You are right. There is no comparison between this place and the Emerald Coast. EC was like paradise!!!
This place though, is beautiful and definitely has its own charm! Enjoyed watching this video. Waiting for the next....... :)
+Mirized Kapadia Thank you. There's no comparison...but still a decent beach. Very quiet. This Friday we're going back to the Florida Keys
Thank you for all the awesome places your showing us! Planning an rv trip !!!!
Robert, thank you again for taking us on vacation with you!
You're welcome
You missed the great Jan's restaurant on the main street of JB -- breakfast and lunch -- great food and just a really great place to have a meal in a casual friendly atmosphere. Can't believe you stayed in the RV park across from Conchy Joe's and didn't have dinner there -- great conch and other seafood -- and fun chickie hut with a fine view of the Indian River.
No mention of the great golf and tennis in the area that is available and too few of the parks were shown. Plus the great sunsets are viewed from Shephard's Park on the St. Lucie River which looks out over the anchorage. Liked the video but there wasn't enough shown of JB.
The good old days, not a mask in sight. :)
Thanks for the Sunny update.. All the leaves are turning colors here in NE Ohio and we have been getting frost in the mornings so it's nice to see good weather! 😊👍
+RVdaydream I gotta do a fall road trip sometime to see the changing of the colors.
You're right, the Emerald Coast can't be beat. Going down for a week in March, and considering a job transfer to the area sometime this summer. Enjoying your videos. Keep up the good work, and safe travels.
Thank you! We fell in love with the Emerald Coast of Florida
Amazing 🤩
Wow! What an amazing review. Thanks for being so thorough! I appreciate your blunt honesty. I have to watch your other videos.
Yes thank you Robert for all your videos lets me see places i will probably never get to go.
Thank you!
wow look at that turtle that bring back memories I pick up the turtle I help the turtle go cross the street I stop the traffic people so happy I did it I did it in Boynton Beach Florida 2002
Great Video Rob looks like a really nice place to get away to
+MICHELLE DALTON Yes it was very relaxing.
great video robert like always. it shows you love to go in the water alot just watch out for those jellyfish and sharks along the coast.
My father lived there on the Indian River for twenty years. Boating, fishing, and beach life is what there is to do. Not really too many good places to eat at all and can get boring as far as other stuff to do. Have to drive down to West Palm and Boca to upgrade to better activities and nightlife.
The mobile home park you mentioned "was still under construction" used to be pristine, but was likely damaged by the 2004 hurricane season in which two hurricanes hit Jensen and Stuart that summer. The entire place was wrecked tremendously. I was there picking up rubble and getting the place back in order. The road to Bathtub Reef beach was completely washed out and away and you could not even drive out there. The Holiday Inn hotel on Jensen Beach was completely gutted out by wind and rain and was abandoned for years following.
Great video, we go to Jensen Beach every winter. Port St. Lucie is quiet and has everything you need without the hustle and traffic.
+Mark B. Thanks. I like the area very much.
Uhhh you nuts PSL traffic more wild than Traveling Robert LMFAO Jensen is chill
IseeYou yeah PSL traffic sucks.
You are so right. I've lived there my whole life. People there are very nice and friendly
You think Port saint lucie's bad????? Try driving in Orlando.
Just found your channel. We love it! We're hoping to relocate to Florida in 4 years to the Emerald Coast so this is awesome to watch.
Thank you, that's great! Have you seen my Destin video? ruclips.net/video/g5ehQ05ZfKg/видео.html
Saxophone guy was hot lol. Great video Robert!
Looks lovely....
Love the honesty!!!
The beaches in that area are not the enormous, wide beaches like Daytona, but they are absolutely perfect for sea turtle nesting. I've been privileged to witness several loggerheads laying their eggs. During the season, all you have to do is go out after sunset, and be patient. I had one of the best vacations I've ever had, on Hutchinson Island. Bathtub reef beach is a good snorkeling spot.
Love Mulligans, great fried clams there,,,thats weird they close at 9:30... cheers, and safe travels!
+Mark B. We went back on another trip and it was great. Maybe there was nobody there and they decided to close early.
that Blues band was awesome, any day at the beach is a good day,lol
Thanks for sharing is terrific video I'm in the area quite often and I learned about places I didn't know existed can't wait to go check them out thanks again and happy trails my friend
You're welcome. Very nice area. I have to go back soon.
Love it
Blessings to all
❤🇺🇸👍
Thank you for sharing. Love your accent
Great job with the video Robert. would love to see the entire journeys from the beginning starting with packing till the end when you reach home.
+funguy73 Maybe I'll make a more detailed one soon. Thanks!
Always enjoy your videos, thanks for making them.
Years ago, Pitchford RV Camp was Pitchford Fishing camp,, full of small cottages, and the back of it was for RV's., the building across the street was Macs meat market
Thank you so much for sharing this video. I am going there tomorrow and needed to know what to expect
+Matilda Lucas You're very welcome
Thank you Robert! We are getting out of Miami for Memorial Day and your weekend escape sounds perfect.
Great Job!!!
thanks for some Florida sunshine, i'll get me some Jan & Feb.
loved the tour.
+SKPjoe Coursegold Hey, you're welcome
Definitely agree for Jensen Beach being nothing compared to Emerald Coast by the looks of it! Nice video, the turtle crossing was funny! Hah! :)
I love your show....especially the Florida trips, even though i live in FL and visit these places, its still awesome to watch your travels!!!
Thank you!
Great video and narrator. You sound just like Ricardo Montiban.
Excellent vlog.
Love the honest opinions you gave in this one Robert.
+RVing Illustrated Thanks Brian!
OK now Mr. Robert. My husband is ready to "get the net." Every night I am howling laffing at ur vids. I started cracking up at the not too good brat sammich and did not have a break through fly birdie fly! That was not fair. It's covid time so the crazy bus could come get meh. LOL Enjoy ur vids so much.

You are hilariously honest. We just moved to PSL and are looking for a few nice spots to visit nearby. Thank you for the thorough video.
Hope you enjoyed it here! Love living here!
Your videos are so wholesome I love you.
LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!!!
Thank you
Thank you for the Florida sunshine! I can't wait to move out of this hellhole state in the northeast!
another top notch video mate.
+Ray Sater Thank you mate
thank you Robert
Thanks for posting, great drone footage :-)
Thanks!
I really enjoy your road trips. You make me wish I owned in RV and I love your opening song. It's great.
Thank you much enjoyed.
Lived there when in 20s
Me too!
Interesting! I didn't realize I had watched this already and then saw my comment below about my Marathon FL trip (it was awsome!). I came here today because I'm booking a trip to Port St Lucie next summer. Seems like this video draws me to vacation destinations. LOL!
Hmmm, cool.
wow that's stage remind me Bayside in Miami🤔
Enjoyed your Video. Thanks Robert! I lived in Port St. Lucie in 1986-87 and would go to Jensen Beach all the time to a place called Conchie Joe's. Best Conch Fritters and cold draft beer.
Yes, been to Conchie Joe's. Love that area
I believe the name of the band is mollycops best regards. Your vid are awsome
Thanks! I'll make a note of that, maybe put them in the description.
We were in Florida in December and went to Jensen Beach. We seen a guy scuba diving looking for treasure but all he found was a dog leash. Still a nice beach to relax at and walk around.🏖
That would have been a good idea
WooW Good You Rock Man ;)
Thanks!
At the time you were there with the toxic algae blooms the water even up to Jensen Beach was bad. Bathtub beach is very close to the inlet and I’m surprised it was that clear during the blooms. I’m a stand up paddle boarder and go all over the treasure coast for paddles but not during that time. The blooms also hurt the tourism industry that’s why it looked deserted. Summer is the slow season for tourism too.
My hometown :)
Nothing pleases you obviously. 95 is not too far away.
Have a nice ride.
Very Good Job :)
+Rafsan1983 Thank you!
By the way, maybe you can do separate cooking videos. We love your Picadillo! Please do this soon. I’m sure you’ll get tons of views. Traveling Robert’s RV Recipes!
Lol I live here it’s funny that I’m watching this
Thank you♡ I enjoyed this. I'm a new rv owner... so I'm trying to decide where to go
You're welcome
I live in the area and love the food at Crawdaddys I was surprised you said it was just ok and that Mulligans nachos (which looked really neon orange) were delicious LOL but hey anyone can have an off day in the kitchen hence your breakfast omelet LOL
You have a good life.
Nice review of the Treasure Coast, I lived in Jensen Beach for a few years while we were building the Nuclear Power Plant, if you would of drove north on A1A you would see the power plant, they have daily tours there, also if you are looking for an awesome meal,go to the City Marina Tiki Bar in Ft. Pierce, its on the mainland side right off of U.S.1, the food there is absolutely amazing.
+sc1212able Thank you. Been to that Tiki Bar in Ft. Pierce. Wasn't impressed. Maybe next time I'll do the power plant tour
Yes, Tiki bar not all that.
Nice one
I'll stil know Flórida. It's beautiful!
Wow I’m from the Gulf Coast panhandle sugar white sand so I’m not crazy about that east side of Florida. You need to do the Emerald Coast!!!!
Nice vid Robert :)
+Emil Larsson Thanks!
You wanted to know the name of the band....It's our good friend Joel DaSilva. A great musician and wonderful person. He plays a lot of venues in Fl. In the past he has opened up for BB King and featured at the Montreal Jazz Festival. You can find him on Facebook. We have travelled many miles just to hear him play. Good musicians appreciate good musicians. By the way, my wife and I really like your music and your videos.
We love the Stuart FL boardwalk...Jensen beach private beaches between Jensen beach and Stuart Beach.
Want soft white sand? Vero beach south beach
Also Friday nights Jensen beach live entertainment...Oceanfront dining... Shuckers!!! By the sea!
+Travelingrobert you should do a drive in Miami or a day in my life in Miami it would be interesting to watch I hope you can don it because I'm am really looking forward to seeing it
I commend you bro, I lived in the treasure coast for a whole year (I live in Port saint Lucie which is ten miles away from the beach of Jensen Beach) and let me say I always love enjoying the site of the lagoon, and then head to the Beach, it's beautiful of course, the reason I came here to Florida in general was to get away from the winters, see? I'm from Oklahoma (Lawton)
+dakentaijutsu2010 Thank you. Never been to Oklahoma...but I will at some point.
TravelingRobert my advice, visit Oklahoma during spring, or mid fall, the weather will be nice and warm
You rock
I am re watching this video while sitting in my RV at Ocean Breeze in Jensen Beach. Still under construction.
+Debra Zotti Oh...will they ever finish it
Remember, each time you depart from a place to return to the RV or return back to your home after an RVacay, say this -
"Let's make like a Winnebago and motor home ..."
+Khu NoPie Cool. Maybe I will adopt the phrase.
+Traveli
ngRobert
Very nice Roberto
Hola Roberto!
Thank you for another great video. I wonder if the band was Earthtones, I say that because in the video, there was a mat on stage with them that said Earthtones, maybe. Anyway thanks for sharing.
Just got back from Jenson Beach and Hutchison Island. You are right everything closes by 10pm! We loved the place. Just found your channel. Great video!!!
For the 3 days you stayed, you should have drive down A1A past Hutchinson Beach and the Sebastian inlet, they have some great restaurants there! Port Salerno is another good place to visit! its a bit further south! for 3 days you had plenty of time! :)
Lol I work at the Hoffman’s! It’s funny that you went there first!

We're heading to Marathon FL on Nov 9 from Ontario Canada. Can hardly wait! No snow here yet but the temps are definitely getting cooler.
+Floridafanatic28 Cool. My next video is about Marathon.
I'm looking forward to it! 😃
Robert, Thanks for the Mini Vacation! When are You going on a tour of Route 66? That would be a lot of Fun!
As soon as I start doing this full time that will be one of the first itineraries. I did a small section from when we drove from the Grand Canyon to Las Vegas a few years back.
A very nice video. Do you think you will ever do a video where you show us what and how you pack for your trips? (food, clothing, basic essentials, etc) Also, will we ever hear from the lovely Ileana? I would like to hear her or is she camera shy? :-)
