Sebastian Daily is the number-one source for local news with more readers than any other publication in Sebastian, Vero Beach, Fellsmere, and Indian River County.

We bring you straightforward, honest coverage of what’s happening right here—whether it’s community events or local government decisions.

Our beat is strictly local, centered on the news that hits home for Indian River County residents. We skip national politics, including local protests about national issues, at the request of our readers to prevent political polarization and division. It’s a policy we’ve had for more than a decade.
