A NOTE FROM THE MANAGER

Terry Coulliette

Winter has finally arrived, bringing cooler weather, snowbirds and some relief from the mosquitoes and no-see-ums. The cooler weather has also inspired many folks to bring out their fishing tackle and try their hand at landing flounder, pompano, redfish and snook.  

We are fortunate that while our friends and families are dealing with frost and snow further north, we can still go to the beach and enjoy the sun and sea. We can send them warm thoughts, great photos and invitations to escape to the REAL FLORIDA and the sunshine here.

 

The cooler water in the ocean will also be encouraging the West Indian Manatees to begin seeking warmer water in the Indian River Lagoon and inlet waters. Bring you cameras and enjoy these gentle creatures as we share with them, the REAL FLORIDA at the Sebastian Inlet State Park!

 

Please see Ranger Programs for interpretive program schedule and Park Special Events for scheduled events.
