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 Thursday March 19, 2026.
A bit warmer again but still not pleasant by any stretch on the dock. The wind is howling straight down the river at 20+ MPH and it has brought the water level up 1.5 - 2 feet since yesterday!
It's spring break season in south Florida. We had 4 tables of college spring break kids in the restaurant last night, so what do I know about this not being a hot spot! The 2 I got locations from were Minnesota and Ontario. The weather hasn't been great for them but warmer than where they came from for sure.
🌤 Waterfront Weather Conditions
Time: 9:45 AM
Air Temperature: 65°F
Wind Direction & Speed: North at 20+ MPH
Tide Stage: High at 11 AM and Low around 6 PM
Water Clarity: Cloudy from all the wind
Overall Conditions: Choppy with occasional white caps cresting. A north wind is always our coldest wind.
🎣 Fishing Activity & Wildlife Sightings
With all the wind things are pretty quiet. The osprey are soaring up above playing on the wind but most other birds are still hunkered down somewhere in their escape from yesterdays cold wind.
🌊 Indian River Lagoon Insight
Today is my last day on this dock for a few days. I'm heading to Live Oak FL for a bluegrass festival. I've got the trailer attached to the car and am ready to roll! There is a pond there and a dock so I will do a dock/nature report from Live Oak while I'm there.
🏡 Sebastian & Vero Beach Real Estate Update & Suggestion of The Day
Todays suggestion is to not panic about moves in the mortgage market. It's like trying to pick a top or bottom of a stock. It will drive you mad if you try and time it perfectly. Just relax.
The real estate market in Sebastian and Vero Beach remains balanced overall. Inventory levels are steady, and well-positioned homes continue to move quickly when priced appropriately. There is plenty of inventory and only slight price reductions seen in the market. Days on market is a more traditional 75 than the hyper markets we have had in the past few years.
