Fishing
Sebastian Inlet and the surrounding waters provide
fantastic Florida fishing for beach, river and
inlet anglers. Large catches are often made from
the two jetties extending into the Atlantic Ocean.
Boat launch facilities provide access to nearby
offshore fishing and diving. Information on fishing
regulations is available at both entrance stations
and salt water fishing licenses can be obtained
at the Bait Shop. Spear fishing is prohibited.
Surfing
Three miles of Atlantic beach offer some of the
best surfing on the East Coast of Florida. One
of the most consistent surf breaks in Florida
is Sebastian Inlet's first peak, located next
to the north jetty. Another hot surf spot is Monster
Hole--located about 1/3 mile off the beach, on
the south side of Sebastian Inlet. The contour
of the ocean floor rises up and when the surf
is big, the waves form long lines, giving a long
ride.
