Photos of a Beautiful Florida East Coast Sunset

We were lucky to see this amazing sunset right from our campsite on a recent trip down to Melbourne.

Campsite sunset photos

While we were camping at Long Point campground we were lucky to witness this beautiful Florida sunset. We were on Florida’s east coast but our campsite faced west. The sun was setting over the Indian River and put on a lovely show.

Usually I can only see glimpses of a sunset through the trees in my neighborhood, so this was a special treat. It is why I have dedicated this page to the very long lasting sunset.

The camper window over the dinette looked right out toward the river and I could sit inside and watch this display.

We were in the process of packing our truck, with the bike, grill and kayak, to head home the next day, but took time out to get photos. Every time we looked, it was even brighter and more beautiful.

The bugs were awful, so being outside was not fun. Check out time at Long Point is 11:00am so we tried to get mostly packed the night before.

This sunset view made the chore a lot nicer!
