EspañolSEBASTIAN INLET (FLORIDA)
'Sebastian Inlet', located in Sebastian Inlet State Park in Brevard County, Florida and Indian River County, Florida, offers surfing and fishing opportunities. It is off state road A1A just 12 miles north of Vero Beach. There are annual surf tournaments, professional and amateur. Visitors fish there, particularly for Snook and Redfish.
The Inlet is managed by a commission popularly elected by voters from the surrounding area. Candidates run non-partisan. Their annual salary is $3,600. Commissioners include:
District 1, Brevard County - Jenny Lawton Seal (term ends 2008)[1]
District 2, Indian River County - Beth L. Mitchell (term ends 2008)
District 3, Brevard County - Raymond Reed (term ends 2008)
District 4, Indian River County - Ann Perry (term ends 2010)
District 5, Brevard County - Jim Culberson (term ends 2010)
Administrator (appointed) - Martin S. Smithson
A Spanish fleet was wrecked in this area in 1715. The site where the survivors camped was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places on August 12, 1970, under the title of Spanish Fleet Survivors and Salvors Camp Site. Today, the McLarty Treasure Museum (a part of the park) exhibits artifacts relating to the wreck.
