Scottsmoor Landing anchors saltwater access on Indian River Lagoon in Brevard County. It's a reliable jumping-off point whether you're wetting a line, running the flats, or simply logging a lazy afternoon on Indian River Lagoon. It runs a single lane, so plan to arrive early on peak weekends. As of the last FWC inventory update, launching is free here.

What to know before you launch
- Rinse your trailer and engine with fresh water after launching in salt — corrosion is the enemy on Florida's coast.
- Parking and lane space can be tight on weekends; have your gear staged and your plug in before you back down.
- There are no restrooms on-site, so plan accordingly before you head out.
- Always check current tides, wind, and marine forecasts before you launch — Florida afternoons can turn stormy fast.
