Sea Oaks

Sea Oaks Beach & Tennis Club at the north end of Vero Beach's barrier island: the oak-canopied lanes, the tennis courts from above, the beach club on the dune, and the lagoon marina.

About this gallery

What the photos of Sea Oaks show.

In the frames

  • The green Sea Oaks and Tennis Club signs, the lanes under the live oaks, and the yellow two-story club house with its verandas and brick terrace.
  • Aerials straight down on the Har-Tru courts set among the trees, the pools tucked into the canopy, and the townhome and condominium clusters between them.
  • The oceanfront beach club with its white metal roof on the dune, the beach in a stiff onshore wind, and the marina and fishing pier on the Indian River Lagoon.

How it photographs

  • The densest canopy of any community in this list. Ground-level exteriors are shot for shade and the aerial is what reveals a home's position between ocean and lagoon.
  • Several residence types inside one gate (low-rise condominiums, tennis villas, townhomes, single-family homes), so a listing needs its type made obvious in the first frame.
  • Key West vernacular: pale clapboard, white rails, metal roofs, which hold detail well against the dark green of the oaks.

Media that earns its place.

What to book, and why

  • A measured floor plan helps here more than in most communities, because the villa and townhome plans are compact and buyers ask about the layout first.
  • Aerials for anything on the lagoon side or with a view corridor to the ocean; from the street those views are invisible under the trees.
  • Photos alone are enough for many of the tennis villas, where the club context can be borrowed from this gallery.
  • The Kit + Kaboodle

    $500

    Photos, aerials, the Zillow 3D tour, and a floor plan: the villa and townhome buyer's questions answered in one booking.

    Plan on about 1½ hours on site.

Before a shoot here

What to know first.

Access

Gated entry

Vero Beach, Indian River County.

Gate codes and access instructions go in the property’s access notes when you book; the full terms are on the terms of service page.

Good to know

  • Gated entry: put the gate code or call-box instructions in the property's access notes when booking so the photographer is not left at the keypad.
  • Interior light under the canopy is lower and cooler than on the open beach; HDR exposures are routine, and a shoot is timed for the hours the sun clears the trees on the property's side.
  • Sea-turtle nesting season runs March 1 to October 31. Lights visible from the beach must be off or turtle-friendly amber after 9 pm, which limits what a late twilight exterior can show from the ocean side; a blue-hour frame taken earlier is the usual answer.
  • If the home is not ready when the photographer arrives, the shoot may go ahead as-is, be shortened, or be completed on a paid return visit.
