Sebastian Inlet State Park Campground

The inlet has friendly, helpful rangers, easy to access campsites, and is in a beautiful location. Great for fishing, surfing, boating, and going to the beach. It’s Florida though, so bring bug spray for the no-see-ums and mosquitoes.

Stayed one night on our roadtrip to the Everglades. Good campground with paved loops and gravel sites. Sites are close together with little privacy. But we could see the water from our site. Bugs, especially the “no see ums” were pretty bad - so bring bug spray. Clean bathrooms and showers. Nice access to the inlet as well as the beach. Dredging project underway, but didn’t impact our stay. Lots of fisherman.

Wonderful state park right on the inlet.

Sebastian Inlet State Park near Melbourne, FL.  We stayed for stopovers on way down and back from Miami area.  Most campsites do not have water views but are just a short stroll away. Most sites have limited privacy but some have more vegetation buffer. The campgrounds were quiet, clean and pleasant. With a Northern and Southern section, this park offers several access points to the ocean beach, the inlet itself and the River.  We were delighted to stroll the long beaches and watch the surfers, watch fishermen in the river in the morning and evening, and watch the many pelicans feeding from the bridge structure over the river.  The swimming area behind the jetty on the north side creates an almost man-made tide pool which is perfect for swimming and for younger children to play in the shallows without waves or currents.  We hope we can get reservations again!

Excellent grounds easy-to-use helpful personal the convenience of the amitities were excellent

Nice and quiet but the no see ums are so bad we had to spend most of our time indoors. This is a great place if you like to fish.

Easy in and out. Nice ppl.

Fishing, birds galore! Rabbits, squirrels. By the water. Only downside are th we no seeums they get ya everywhere! Clean showers, bathrooms. Lots to see.

Wind in your hair and lovely water views everywhere. Clean restrooms and nice neighbors. Saw dolphins, a manatee and sea turtle and dozens of different types of birds. No see ums are no joke. Be prepared for bug bites! Fire ring was very close to road on this site.

Gorgeous views! Great camp Sites with fire ring and gravel. Only complain is there isn’t much around so come prepared!

We love this place. Great swimming in the cove, decent surfing, and awesome accessibility options for disabled!

Melbourne FL 👍👍👍👍

PROS · Sites are shell · Good water views · Shore Fishing · Boat Launch · Fishing Museum · Birds · Pavement biking in camping area · Playground

CONS · No-See-Ums · Swimming & Surfing beaches across Big Bridge. Bike lane goes to Bridge, but then you have to ride on the road

There are no bad spots at this park. Gorgeous views of the inlet and enough trees for shade but without the being a hindrance during parking. Lovely area to walk and see finishing and plenty of wildlife.

I can't say enough about the site and people that run this place.  Bathrooms are spotless and the sites are perfect.  Perfect getaway for families and couples.

It was our first time camping, and the campground was beautiful and comfortable. We got lucky and were able to stay on spot #1, with water views and more space. Some of the other campsites felt a little cramped. But we would go back even staying at other sites. It is hard to stick the tent poles because it is gravel floor, so bring strings. They sell fire wood there, and there are shops nearby if you need anything. The only downside is we were not able to hang our hammock (they don't allow anything on the trees). We would definitely be back, we had an awesome time!

Nice camp ground for fishing and bringing the boat along. Some spots are tight in the front row. The back loop has a little more room. Lots of no-see-ums. ( tiny bugs that bite ) bring a insect tent to sit out in !!!

Came here for an extended weekend at the end of July. The majority of these sites are in direct sun, with a few that have shade only for brief periods of time during the day...most will not even put shade on your camper or trailer. IT WAS HOT. The only relief you can get is the occasional breeze blowing between large RV's, or head over to the coast and jump in the water. The campground is relatively clean, but many of the sites are overgrown with low lying weeds, and it doesn't seem to be well maintained in that respect. The restroom and shower facilities are clean. If you happen to be in a site that shares a water spigot with an adjacent unit, make sure you bring a long water hose...we needed to borrow a nice neighbor's spare hose. The area is very nice, there are plenty of areas to fish and to relax and take walks. You can access the beaches on  foot if you'd like.

This was our very first camping trip with our new camper. Absolutely beautiful state park with so much to do and see!!! From bird watching to swimming, to paddle boarding, to kayaking, to biking, the possibilities are endless!!! Then at night….you can have a campfire!!! We didn't get to enjoy as much as we wanted to on this trip as we got rained out, but believe me we will be back!!! So if you get a chance, go ahead and make your reservation…you won't regret it.

I would give a four or five star rating except for the bathrooms were dirty. Toilets clogged over 24 hours. May of been a shortage or volunteer camp host , however there were plenty at of Park Rangers idle at check in. Plenty of activity, many sites have been upgraded to 50amp service. Need a bike or vehicle to get to beach area. Plenty of traffic for boat ramp.

This park is right on the water. We saw a giant sea turtle bigger than a manhole cover. We watched dolphins play at sunrise. We were parked right across from the water. My husband and the kids fished off the rocks

Amazing little campground right on the water. Clean restroom facilities. Close to beaches. People are friendly. If you’re trying to surf or fish stay here!

Good fishing, nice people, clean facilities

A beautiful and fun place to spend your vacation. Bath houses were kept clean and were very accessible to everyone. Surfing, paddle boarding, swimming, picnicking, fishing, boat docks, playground and much more. We loved it.

We were parked at spot 8. Which offers a great view of the water. My only complaint is that the no-see-in’s are relentless. This is not a fault of the park so it does not rate in my review. Do come with plenty of big spray rated or tested for no-see-umm or with a screen tent. Otherwise, I have already booked a spot a month from now and next year.

Very clean park, downfall is no sewer hookup, 30 amp service most sites. Newer sites have no shade however 50amp but hard to come by. 24 hr access. Several sites share water so you may need 75’ hose. Some sites could use some tree trimming could not extend awning. Overall a nice clean park. Swimming you need a car to get to the beach. Update sites 32-44 now have 50amp service.

Love Sebastian! So much to see and do. Beautiful surroundings overlooking the Inlet! Spaces and restrooms were so clean.

We did not camp in the Sebastian Inlet State Park campground, but instead chose the primitive experience through BG Marina. There are 10 campsites at the marina that are great if you want a place to launch your boat and camp out between fishing trips. Each has a picnic table and fire pit. They are also well shaded. However, the sites are very close together and not private at all- it can get a little loud if crowded. There are clean bathrooms, access to water, but no showers.
