December 6, Wednesday, Day 64

Sebastian Inlet SP

Sunrise to sunset this day was stunning.   One interesting feature of a north-south barrier island is that viewing the sunrise and sunset can be done within yards of one another This island is only a few hundred feet wide at some points, but at the inlet is about 1/2 mile wide. The state park is on both sides of the inlet.

After breakfast, Penny and I rode our bikes on a bike path along the one north south road and doubled back. She went 11.5 miles and I went 15 miles in an hour. Later, we took a hike on the Hammock Trail that wound through a mangrove forest. The canopy provided shade and we found very pretty colors in there.
