The Port Mayaca Memorial Gardens is located in an unincorporated section of southwestern Martin County on SR76. The cemetery formed after the 1928 hurricane that claimed many Glades residents and has a memorial to them, including the more than 1,600 hurricane victims who are buried there. A trust formed by the cities of Pahokee, Belle Glades and South Bay originally operated the cemetery, but since 1992, it has been under the operation of the City Clerk’s Office of Pahokee, Palm Beach County.
