Realistically about 15 min to river & 20-30 to ocean. Better beaches are south of Sebastian & are recommended
From where I am the indian river lagoon is right down 512 Sebastian blvd. Takes all of 8 minutes. The inlet is about 35 minutes, n A1A , and Wabasso beach entrance about 20 minutes. They have a bunch of small beaches each with different names, beautiful place to spend the day. We are the treasure coast and many a people use their metal detectors in the beach areas. I personally know of a few that have found some gold coins and gorgeous old gold jewelry with rubies and sapphires. A very neat place, also there is a beach here you can find a pumice stone type floating rock...they work great !! Lol, everything is spread out around here but there is something everywhere you look. Quiet and quaint town.
The sebastion inlet is about a 15 minute ride. Vero beaches about 25 minutes
