Blue skies meet over 26 miles of white sandy beaches in Vero Beach and miles of riverfront in Sebastian, the main towns in Indian River County Florida. Vero Beach & Sebastian lay claim to the best Florida offers–excellent backwater and offshore fishing, golf, historical sites, cultural events and upscale shopping and dining experiences.
Just north of Vero Beach lies The Sebastian Inlet, which offers excellent surfing, camping, fishing and more. Anglers travel from near and far to catch snook, redfish, bluefish and Spanish mackerel from its jetties.
Both Vero Beach and Sebastian feel like hometowns of yesteryear with many locally owned businesses, independent restaurants, and rich community life.
