Sebastian Inlet is the most famous surf spot in Florida, where offset jetties create a sand-bottom wedge producing performance-quality rights off the north jetty. First Peak — immediately adjacent to the jetty — was one of the best waves on the entire East Coast for nearly 40 years (diminished after a 2003 jetty retrofit). Monster Hole on the south side's ebb shoal provides rides up to 400 yards on epic swells. Alumni include Kelly Slater, Lisa Andersen, and the Hobgood twins. State park entry fee required.
