Good Morning from Sebastian Florida

Good morning from the dock along the Indian River Lagoon in Sebastian, Florida. Here’s your daily waterfront weather, fishing, and wildlife report for Wednesday April 22, 2026.

Still windy but much better.  It doesn't blow you off the dock today!  A pretty morning overall and the humidity is low.  I slept with windows open last night and that isn't a frequent occurrence!  The water is nice and clear and not too high considering the east winds we've had.  Maybe that east wind pushed some fresh new water in.

🌤 Waterfront Weather Conditions

 

Time: 8:30 AM

Air Temperature: 71°F

Humidity: 55%

Wind Direction & Speed: East at 10-12 MPH

Tide Stage: Low at 9:30 AM and High around 3 PM


Water Clarity: Nice and clear with the winds down

Water Conditions: Clear and a moderate level.

General Observations:

Lots of birds out today.  They've probably been hunkered down for the past few days with feeding being more difficult.  An osprey just hung over my head for a while and I created a Zen video out of it.

 

Lagoon Living Tip for the Day:

Keep an eye on your seawall cap and edges.

Small cracks or erosion at the top of a seawall can grow over time, especially with boat wakes and storms. Catching issues early is much easier (and cheaper) than a full repair.

 

🎣 Fishing Activity & Wildlife Sightings

Lots of birds out.  I saw osprey, pelicans feeding, cormorants, turns and the mottled ducks.  Pretty quiet in the water as it is still pretty choppy.

🏡 Sebastian & Vero Beach Real Estate Suggestion of The Day

Don’t overlook HOA and community rules.

Even if a home checks every box, HOA rules can impact how you live—boat parking, rental restrictions, exterior changes, even pet limits. Always review the documents before committing.
