Experience the leisure opportunities in Sebastian
One of the top birding spots in the United States is the St. Sebastian River Preserve State Park. Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge was implemented to protect loggerhead sea turtle breeding habitat within the Western Hemisphere. It is a 248-acre refuge that spans 20.5 miles. On Florida’s east coast, Sebastian Inlet is known as the best saltwater fishing spot. One of two national scenic byways in Florida is the 233-mile Indian River Lagoon National Scenic Byway. Because of its great historical, natural as well as recreational attractions for explorers of all ages, the Byway was designated as a Scenic Highway. Sebastian offers one of the most beautiful skydiving sceneries in the world.

You could also take your dog for a walk along the path near the pond, but dogs must be on a leash in this place. The Park offers shade shelters for owners to relax in while their dogs play as well as watering stations, a sally-port entrance and separate areas for little and large dogs.
