Whoever settles in Sebastian-Vero Beach soon will come to discover that the area lacks major traffic hassles, provides easy access to shops and restaurants, offers year-round outdoor activities, and delivers big-city amenities like the Vero Beach Museum of Art and Riverside Theatre, according to Caseltine.As noted by BestPlaces.net, “Sebastian and Vero Beach are among the few remaining Florida East Coast places maintaining a small-town flavor not overly tilted towards tourists or retirees.”
