About: This 84.5-acre conservation area and urban district river park on an island in the Indian River Lagoon is near the Sebastian Inlet marine ecosystems and the Atlantic Ocean.
Isolated from the hustle and bustle of urban life, Long Point Park is a haven for fisherman, and nature enthusiasts.
This full service campground features shoreline campsites. There is also a boat ramp, small fishing dock and a fish cleaning station. Adjacent to the camping area and connected by a bridge, Scout Island offers more than a mile of nature trails, and primitive youth group camping at a reasonable group rate. Nature walks are provided for school children and organized groups by appointment.
A get-away all year-round for families and day visitors, the park has a swimming lake, playground and picnic pavilions. Located across Hwy A1A from ocean beaches, it is near other County parks on the barrier island, and just a short drive from attractions in Sebastian and Vero Beach.
