Sebastian Inlet State Park lies within a beautiful stretch of barrier island along central Florida’s east coast where land meets the sea. Sebastian Inlet is a manmade cut through the barrier island. This main feature of the park connects the Atlantic Ocean with one of the most biodiverse estuaries in the world, the Indian River Lagoon.

AT&T cellular service clocked in at 14.2 Mbps download speed and 2.43 Mbps upload speed. T-Mobile cellular service clocked in at 1.05 Mbps download speed and 0.54 Mbps upload speed. Verizon cellular service clocked was voice only with intermittent data connectivity. A speed test failed for Verizon. When it comes to an RV campground, this looks like a winner.
