 Welcome to Sebastian Inlet State Park

Currently there are several projects going on at Sebastian Inlet State Park.

The beach re-nourishment project has finished for this year. The sea-turtle activity was monitored closely and no adverse impact on the sea-turtles was encountered. The dredging of the Inlet will continue for a few months, but the pumps are far enough away that it should have no impact on the visitors' camping experience.

The Coconut Point Stabilization project will be starting shortly. This will stop the erosion of Coconut Point and the filling in of one of our boat ramps.  It is expected to continue through July.  Please excuse the addition construction traffic.

Also, please use caution in the main use area. Due to the building of the new concession restaurant and gift shop, there will be increased construction activity in the area until mid to late August.

The Sebastian Inlet swimming cove has now been reopened. Please be advised that the area nearest the Inlet has been dredged to a depth of approximately 6 feet. There is a plenty of very shallow areas for waders and wildlife with a gradual slope to the new depth. Thank you for your patience as we complete these improvements to the park.

The premier saltwater fishing spot on Florida's east coast, this park is a favorite for anglers nationwide for catching snook, redfish, bluefish, and Spanish mackerel from its jetties. Surfing is also a popular recreation and several major competitions are held here every year. Two museums provide a history of the area. The McLarty Treasure Museum features the history of the 1715 Spanish treasure fleet; the Sebastian Fishing Museum tells the history of the area's fishing industry. Three miles of beautiful beaches provide opportunities for swimming, scuba diving, snorkeling, shelling, and sunbathing. Canoeing and kayaking in the Indian River Lagoon are also favorite pastimes. Visitors can relax with a stroll down the mile-long Hammock Trail. Waterfront pavilions and picnic areas are great for family outings. Full-facility campsites and a boat ramp are available. Located on State Road A1A 15 miles south of Melbourne Beach.
