Sebastian's RV campgrounds offer specific amenities for overnight and extended visits. The area has a subtropical climate with warm winters that attract seasonal campers from November through March. Located on Florida's Treasure Coast, Sebastian sits between the Indian River Lagoon and Atlantic Ocean, creating unique camping opportunities within a 30-mile radius of the city.
What to do
Rocket launch viewing: Vero Beach Kamp provides excellent viewing for space launches from nearby Cape Canaveral. "We called Vero Beach Camp the morning of our stay and they welcomed our reservation for 1 night. Beautiful shaded campground, nice swimming pool, clean and quiet. The rocket launch was scrubbed so we will try again!" reports David K.
Fishing opportunities: Causeway Cove Marina and RV Park offers direct water access with on-site boat and equipment rentals. "Right on the water with boat and kayak rentals onsite. Lots of restaurants and the beach close by," notes Andrew G. The marina location provides easy access to both freshwater and saltwater fishing.
Beach activities: The Sebastian area features multiple beaches within short driving distances from most campgrounds. "A short walk across the road leads you to the Causeway beach. Large campsites, you aren't on top of your neighbors camper at all!!!" shares Scott M. about Causeway Cove Marina's proximity to swimming areas.
What campers like
Clean facilities: Cleanliness ranks high among camper priorities at Sebastian area RV parks. "This place is very clean, quiet and has a great pool area. This is our 2nd stay here. Close to beaches and great restaurants," mentions Lisa H. about her experience at Encore Sunshine Travel.
Spacious sites: Treasure Coast RV Park receives praise for its site dimensions and layout. "The pads you'll be parking on are newly poured concrete and the whole place is landscaped to full effect. Behind the welcome reception is the community pool (and hot jacuzzi – bonus points!), which is pretty amazing," Stuart K. explains about the campground's setup.
Community activities: Many parks offer organized events for seasonal guests. "The park/campsite is so beautiful. Everything is lush and green and the rv sites themselves are fully equipped with everything. Also, it's very quiet and peaceful here. Pool, pond, bingo, ice cream night, free breakfast Tuesdays and Friday night band by the pool," describes Whit J. about Treasure Coast RV Park.

Reservation timing: Winter reservations require significant advance planning. "We got lucky and landed a cancellation for a few weeks," mentions Ari A. about securing a spot at Treasure Coast RV Park during peak season.
Site configurations: Encore Space Coast has varying site layouts depending on location within the park. "Very tight spots...stayed here for 2 days. The place is big and about 50% seasonal campers, spots are very tight and no dog park. They have some nice spots but they put me in the back like a sardine," cautions Ronald C.
Pet policies: Dog rules vary widely between parks, with some offering designated areas and others having breed restrictions. "Kinda high priced w no cancellation policy," notes Mark S. about one park's financial policies regarding changes to reservations.
Tips for camping with families
Pool amenities: Most family-friendly campgrounds feature heated swimming pools. "Decent RV park close to the beach. Had a back in site. Gravel under the RV so not quite level. No fires allowed, heated pool was very nice for the kids," shares Sven L. about Space Coast RV Resort.
Playgrounds and recreation: Sonrise Palms RV caters to younger campers. "This is a very clean, pet and children friendly RV park. Gated dog park with lots of toys," reports Tony W., highlighting amenities that accommodate families with both children and pets.

Tips from RVers
Site leveling: Concrete pads at Vero Beach Kamp provide stable parking but may need adjustment. "On US1 about 5 to 10 miles from Beach and groceries. Nice shaded dirt camp site. Mixture of overnight and long term campers. Only stayed 2 nights," reports Mack W.
Internet access: Cell service varies throughout the region, with some parks offering paid WiFi. "Cell service is solid on T Mobile and Verizon. T Mobile bounces between 5G and LTE, Verizon stayed on LTE. Speed tests aren't always high but we've had no issues with work, including video calls," shares Ari A.
Seasonal weather preparation: Summer brings higher temperatures and humidity, while winter provides mild conditions. "Decent cell service for T-Mobile and AT&T," notes Laura H., describing communication options at her campground for those needing to stay connected during longer stays.
