Before backpacks are packed, alarms are reset, and weeknight routines return, Florida’s Treasure Coast families still have time for one more summer adventure.

The Locals Only program makes planning that last getaway a little easier, with exclusive seasonal offers for residents of Indian River, St. Lucie, and Martin counties. A family living anywhere within those three counties can use eligible deals throughout the entire region. That means a resident of one county can cross county lines, explore somewhere new, and still receive local savings. A valid ID showing a Treasure Coast address may be required when redeeming an offer.

There is no need to plan a long road trip or spend the final days of summer sitting in traffic. Families can turn an ordinary afternoon, weekend, or overnight stay into a close-to-home escape.

The available accommodations include hotels, resorts, inns, cottages, suites, vacation rentals, waterfront properties, and beachfront stays. Depending on the offer, families may find discounted room rates, percentage-based savings, special multi-night pricing, complimentary extras, or reduced rates for longer stays. Some accommodations include family-friendly conveniences such as kitchens, free breakfast, pools, sleeper sofas, outdoor spaces, and easy access to beaches and nearby attractions.

Families hoping to fill the final stretch of summer with activity have plenty of choices, too. Locals Only deals cover museum and attraction admission, waterparks, beach equipment, fishing trips, kayaking, sailing, cruises, eco-tours, boating experiences, botanical gardens, golf activities, horseback riding, and other outdoor adventures. There are also dining and shopping offers that can help turn a day trip into a full family outing.

A morning on the water can lead to an afternoon by the pool. A beach day can end with dinner, ice cream, or a walk through a local attraction. Even a single overnight stay can give children one more summer memory to talk about when they return to class.

The offers are available for limited periods, and dates vary. Many summer lodging, dining, and activity deals continue through August or September 2026, while some accommodations remain discounted through October or December. Indian River County also lists a back-to-school special running Aug. 1-9. Families should review each offer carefully before booking because expiration dates, availability, minimum stays, reservation requirements, and blackout periods may apply. Labor Day weekend and other busy travel dates are excluded from some promotions.

Summer always seems to move faster once the school supplies appear in stores. The Locals Only program offers families a reason to pause before the season slips away completely. Whether the plan includes sandy feet, a boat ride, a museum visit, a pool day, or a quiet night near the water, one final adventure can make the transition back to school feel a little sweeter.
