I was too early to check into my campsite & told the park ranger at Sebastian Inlet that I was going to head over to St. Sebastian River for a visit. He told me it was a nice park with great opportunities to see manatee. I arrived at the park a few moments before 10 am which meant the visitor’s center was not opened yet. I followed the road through the preserve and stopped along the way to see the different areas. I must have been too early for the manatees because all that were out were a few men fishing and birds, lots and lots of birds!
I headed back to the visitor center to talk to someone who could guide me through the park better as I felt like I had missed some things along the way. The center was still closed so I decided to move on with my day.
Before you visit, make sure you check out the parks website for all of the up-to-date park information: https://www.floridastateparks.org/St-Sebastian
