Ocean Breeze is one of Florida's smallest towns, located in the Jensen Beach area of Martin County near the Indian River Lagoon. It began as a trailer park in 1938 and was incorporated as a town in 1960, and today it offers a small, close-knit setting minutes from Stuart and the beaches.

Ocean Breeze was founded as Ocean Breeze Trailer Park and later shortened its name to Ocean Breeze. According to the University of Florida, its population roughly doubled between 2020 and 2025, from 301 to an estimated 608 residents.
Ocean Breeze is off Jensen Beach Boulevard, close to U.S. Highway 1, downtown Jensen Beach, and the bridges to Hutchinson Island.
Public schools serving Ocean Breeze are part of the Martin County School District, and the area is also served by private schools. School assignments are based on address and can change, so confirm boundaries directly with the Martin County School District before making a purchase decision.
Because the town is so small, few homes are listed at any given time. Contact us for current availability, community rules, and recent sales.
Review the HOA, condominium, or club documents, budget, and fees carefully before you make an offer, and ask whether any special assessments are planned. If you are buying a condominium, ask for recent milestone inspection reports and the structural integrity reserve study, which Florida law requires for many condominium buildings three stories or taller, since they can affect future assessments.
Look up the property's flood zone on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and get homeowners and flood insurance quotes early. Insurance can significantly affect your monthly cost, and a lender may require flood insurance depending on the zone.
Ask the seller for the roof's age and a wind mitigation inspection report. Florida requires insurers to offer discounts for qualifying wind-resistant features, such as impact-rated windows or shutters and stronger roof attachments, so these features can lower your premium. You can look up the property's hurricane evacuation zone through Martin County Emergency Management.
If the home will be your primary residence, apply for Florida's homestead exemption with the Martin County Property Appraiser, generally by March 1 of the year after you purchase. Once a home is homesteaded, Florida's Save Our Homes provision limits yearly increases in its assessed value to 3% or the change in the Consumer Price Index, whichever is lower.
