Taste of Old Florida

13 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Palm City, FL

A small but unique piece of land that was given to a family in the 1920s by the Florida Railroad Company. It stayed in the family until we purchased it. It is unique because the surrounding area does not have much tree coverage. This is due to the ground underneath, which is a vein of grey marl. This is why the area is called the Allapattah (an Indian word for Alligator) Flats. We are hoping that our county stays the way it is so people will know what Old Florida really looks like. Minutes from I-95, but surrounded by the Allapattah Flats Wildlife Management Preserve. Located on Martin Hwy, which was recently designated as a Florida Scenic Hwy. Fifteen minutes to Stuart and thirty minutes to West Palm Beach, a world away from the hustle and bustle. We realize that people also love Florida for Disney and tropical paradises but if that is what you want than this may not be your kind of place.

No sewage facilities for both sites, must have black water holding tanks. Located on an acre with Grissom Pkwy in the back. Very near the restaurant "Jabbers". Great views of rocket launches, just a few miles from Publix, other shops and other restaurants. About a mile to the Indian River, about five miles to the Banana River (and Kelly Park for windsurfing or launching boats) about 12 miles to Port Canaveral and the beach at Jetty Park or better yet (my fav) Cherie Down Park. CDP is great for surfing, beach fishing, viewing rocket launches or just beach walking. While there please visit Port Canaveral's host of bars and restaurants. Also, about 25 miles to the Space Center. PLEASE! Best way onto property is go west on Canaveral Groves Blvd 1/2 mi. to Alan Sheppard, left and left again at 1st. street (Atlanta St.). Back the 1/2 mi. to Knoxville Ave where the trailer/camper entrance lines up directly with Atlanta St. GPS does NOT know if you are pulling a camper/trailer...LOL!

The best camping near Sebastian Inlet State Park guide

Overview

About

Golden sands and misty seascapes stretch along the Atlantic Coast at Sebastian Inlet State Park, where surfers congregate to ride famous surf breaks like “First Peak” and “Monster Hole.” If you prefer tranquil paddling to crashing surf, the central Indian River Lagoon provides a scenic spot for boating and kayaking, along with snorkeling, scuba diving, and saltwater fishing. Don’t miss a visit to the McLarty Treasure Museum to admire treasure from an 18th-century Spanish shipwreck, then check into the Sebastian Inlet Campground, where the RV and tent sites all have full hookups, fire rings, and picnic benches.

Tips for snagging a campsite

You can reserve one of 51 full-facility campsites at Sebastian Inlet State Campground via the Florida State Parks Reservation website.
Sebastian Inlet campsite reservations can be made 11 months in advance for Florida residents, or 10 months in advance for non-residents.
Campsites can book up fast, especially in peak season (April-September) and over holiday weekends, so book at least three months in advance.

When to go

Summer is peak season at Sebastian Inlet State Park, so arrive early to secure a parking spot and expect crowds along the beaches. Spring and late fall through winter are the best times for birding along the coast, when migratory shorebirds flock to the coast. If you’re visiting in June or July, this is the chance to spot loggerhead sea turtles nesting along the beach, but you’ll need to book a ranger-led tour to do so.

Know before you go

Sebastian Inlet State Park is 20 miles southeast of Melbourne, about a 30-minute drive away.
There are day-use fees for all Florida State Parks, and campsite booking fees also apply.
Facilities at Sebastian Inlet State Park include boat ramps, picnic areas, a playground, beach showers, a Visitor Center, a restaurant and gift shop, and bait shops.
You can bring your own boat and watercraft to the park, but boat launch fees may apply. There are no lifeguard patrols at Sebastian Inlet, so swim at your own risk and pay attention to warning flags indicating water conditions.
There are ADA-accessible campsites, fishing jetties, restrooms, beaches, and other facilities at Sebastian Inlet. Beach wheelchairs are also available.

Zero shade, so 75% of the year this stinks. Also the sites are very close together and there is no feeling of privacy. Once I camped here and saw a co-worker a few sites down. Yeek! Sometimes you just need to get away from it all and this is not the place to do that. If you love to fish and love to be crammed into lots of people and sweat a lot, this is your place.

Great place for fishing! There is also hiking and bike trails and of course the beach! The state park camp sites are great with water and electricity hook ups. Also available is primative camping at the Sebastian inlet marina, still on state park property and passes are provided to get you in the North and South gates.
