Discover North Port

North Port, in southern Sarasota County, includes Little Salt Spring, an unusual archaeological and paleontological site whose waters have yielded preserved human remains and artifacts from 10,000 to 3000 B.C., along with fossils of extinct tortoise, sloth, elephant and bison. Nearby in the pine woods are remains of a village from 4800 to 3200 B.C., whose people buried their dead in the muck of the slough and spring basin. Finds include projectile points, a carved oak mortar and part of a wooden boomerang.

More about North Port

In 1954 the Mackle Brothers founded the General Development Corporation to sell Florida land to Northerners, and they platted and sold most of what is now North Port. The city was incorporated in 1959 with just 21 residents, most of them company employees, to get around county infrastructure rules, and the company's employees served on its first council. On September 28, 2022, Hurricane Ian made landfall just south of Sarasota County, and North Port suffered severe flooding; the Holiday Park mobile home community was almost entirely destroyed.
