Sebastain Inlet State Park
One of Florida's most popular state parks,
Sebastain is a mecca for snook fishing and
is easily located on Highway A1A about 15
miles south of Melbourne Beach. When you see
the big bridge, you are there. Shoreline
fishing can be had along the entire inlet
shore, The north and south jetties, surf
fishing from the beach south of the inlet,
(the north side is one of the most popular
surfing spots on the east coast of the
country so if your game is surf fishing, go
to the south side), two catwalks under the
bridge, a small dock at the campground,
(south side of the inlet) and the lagoon to
the west. Other species caught are redfish,
snapper, tarpon, seatrout, etc. Great
kayaking in the area but be careful of the
strong inlet currents. Launch closer to or
on the lagoon (west) side. There are also
hiking trails, biking trails, good
snorkeling, diving, two museums, and a great
sand bottom shallow swimming and wading
lagoon. A boat ramp can be found on the
south side on the lagoon. There are two
museums on site. The McLarty Treasure Museum
tells the story about the Spanish Treasure
Fleet of 1715, that wrecked along the
florida southeast coast in that year. The El
Capitan was the northernmost shipwreck of
that fleet and sank on the shallow sandbars
within a mile of the south jetty. The museum
is on the site of the survivors campground.
The Sebastian Fishing Museum tells the
history of the area's fishing industry.
