The state parks in Florida can be spectacular and Sebastian Inlet State Park is one of my favorites. I particular enjoyed my stay while there. I camped at the camp ground that is walking distance from the pier and the beach. I road my bike around a lot there within the park and up down A1A, where the beaches are. Sebastian State Park is one of the only places in South Florida where you can surf almost all year round. Believe it or not, South Florida is not known for the surf.

Here is a Video of the Park

Here is the park description and link for the park..
The premier saltwater fishing spot on Florida’s east coast, this park is a favorite for anglers nationwide for catching snook, redfish, bluefish, and Spanish mackerel from its jetties. Surfing is also a popular recreation and several major competitions are held here every year. Two museums provide a history of the area. The McLarty Treasure Museum features the history of the 1715 Spanish treasure fleet; the Sebastian Fishing Museum tells the history of the area’s fishing industry. Three miles of beautiful beaches provide opportunities for swimming, scuba diving, snorkeling, shelling, and sunbathing. Canoeing and kayaking in the Indian River Lagoon are also favorite pastimes. Visitors can relax with a stroll down the mile-long Hammock Trail. Waterfront pavilions and picnic areas are great for family outings. Full-facility campsites and a boat ramp are available. Located on State Road A1A 15 miles south of Melbourne Beach.

Some of the hotels in Florida are starting to be proactive about the Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Here is a blog post I read today about the Hilton Hotel Beach Satisfaction Guarantee. The “Beach Satisfaction Guarantee,” ensures that guests with reservations at any of Hilton Worldwide’s hotels from the Gulf Coast to South Florida that are beachfront or within a 20 minute drive to the beach will not be charged if the stay is in any way affected by the Gulf oil spill. < Read More >

Does this type of promotion help you travel to a Florida Beach hotel? Are you worried about the oil spill effecting your Florida vacation?
