Cortez is a historic fishing village located on the Gulf Coast of Florida, situated in Manatee County near Bradenton. Founded in the 1880s by fishermen from North Carolina, this waterfront community maintains its authentic character as one of the last remaining working waterfronts in Florida.

The village's cultural heritage is deeply rooted in commercial fishing traditions, with many families continuing practices passed down through generations. The area is known for its maritime culture, historical buildings, and the Florida Maritime Museum, which preserves and shares the region's rich fishing heritage. Despite modern development in surrounding areas, Cortez retains its old Florida charm and continues to be an important center for studying and experiencing the state's maritime history and culture.
