The Palm Beaches 101

With its 39 cities, towns, villages and colonies nestled among more than 2,300 square miles, Palm Beach County is larger than two states! There is much to explore in our energetic and growing region.

Here are a few highlights from the most happening areas of The Palm Beaches, from the Jupiter Lighthouse to the Boca Inlet.

PGA National Resort

Wellington International

REGIONS - NORTH

JUPITER

Major League Baseball Spring Training action at Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium is just the beginning of the experience at this picturesque northern enclave. A visit to the historic, ca. 1860 Jupiter Lighthouse puts you literally on top of the action, while a radiant sunset cruise on a PonTiki party boat connects you with the beautiful Jupiter Inlet below. Kayaking down the legendary “Wild and Scenic” Loxahatchee River is a great way to take in the local flora and fauna, while the newly renovated Maltz Jupiter Theatre offers worldclass cultural nourishment.

JUNO BEACH

Eco adventurers take note: Juno Beach is your waterfront paradise, a town brimming with

all-natural charms and myriad opportunities to explore the wonders of Mother Earth. Take a dive off Juno Ledge to come face to face with South Florida’s most exotic and colorful reef fish, or bring your mukluks and explore the region’s 12 coastal native ecosystems, binoculars in hand. Stroll the Juno Dunes Natural Area, and experience an up-close encounter with a glorious sea turtle at Loggerhead Marinelife Center

PALM BEACH GARDENS

One of The Palm Beaches’ most heralded annual sporting events, formerly named The Honda Classic, a major golf event returns to the PGA National Resort in February here in Palm Beach Gardens, bringing the best of the PGA Tour to this spacious and cultivated city. But Palm Beach Gardens is as famous for its shopping as

its greens, so no visit is complete without some retail therapy at the famous Gardens Mall and al fresco Downtown Palm Beach Gardens, experiences complete with top-rated restaurants and a multiplex cinema.

RIVIERA BEACH / SINGER ISLAND

Sporty visitors flock, steer and paddle to these twin Edens off the eastern coast of the county’s mainland, which bring the unspoiled waters of the Caribbean to The Palm Beaches. With its abundant and diverse marine life, the world-famous Blue Heron Bridge is a delight for divers and snorkelers, while Manatee Lagoon—an FPL Eco-Discovery Center is the ideal spot to observe these gentle sea cows in their natural habitat. Riviera Beach Marina Village is the central gathering spot for boat and kayak rentals, dining and more.

REGIONS - CENTRAL

PALM BEACH

A gilded island with the rich history of being “America’s First Resort Destination,” Palm Beach is home to Worth Avenue, one of the nation’s most famous shopping streets. But its history of luxury hospitality is only one facet of this growing familyfriendly destination, with its Instagrammable bougainvillea-draped architecture, and a free Lake Trail offering walkers and cyclists million-dollar views of waterfront mansions. Pan’s Garden, with its iconic sculpture of the fluted Pan of Rohallion, is another complimentary attraction, while the Flagler Museum is a lavish throwback to the island’s opulent heritage.

WEST PALM BEACH

A world of opportunities thrives in the county seat of The Palm Beaches, whose dynamite downtown, filled with dining, culture and retail, is just minutes from Palm Beach International Airport. From Broadway shows to music legends and top comedians, the Kravis Center is the crown jewel

of West Palm Beach’s bustling Arts & Entertainment District, while the nearby Norton Museum is a first-rate destination for the visual arts. Enjoy the roar of Lion Country Safari, a one-of-a-kind drivethru animal attraction, or bring the family to Dreher Park, where the Palm Beach Zoo and Cox Science Center & Aquarium are separated by a 10-minute walk. Or, for a bit more action, visit Okeeheelee Park. With over 1,700 acres, it’s an inviting catchall for sports both common and unusual, including Okeeheelee BMX, Palm Beach County’s only BMX race track, and Shark Wake Park, which features five freshwater lakes custom-designed for competition water skiing, making this world-class facility a haven for professional and amateur skiers alike. It also offers the largest floating obstacle course on the East Coast.

LAKE WORTH BEACH

Hip eateries, unique shops and colorful art galleries line the streets of this inviting and offbeat city, a favorite for nightlife and public art. The latter is especially plentiful at the annual Lake

Worth Street Painting Festival, where artists create transient masterworks on the downtown pavement each February. The Lake Worth Lagoon is a vital resource for eco-tourists to explore the region, while the Cultural Council for Palm Beach County headquarters is the place for visitors to view work from local artists and learn about all of The Palm Beaches’ cultural assets.

WELLINGTON

For athletes and sports spectators alike, it’s all about the horse play at this illustrious western village, a quiet and homey region that doubles as one of the world’s top destinations for equestrian sport. Top riders in polo, dressage and other sports descend on Wellington for annual gatherings like the Winter Equestrian Festival, making the National Polo Center and Wellington International global attractions. The stellar Wellington Environmental Preserve—with its a six-story observation tower— and the popular Wellington Mall continue to increase Wellington’s cachet.

The Boca Raton Museum of Art is one of South Florida’s preeminent art museums, while the Town Center Mall is one of the nation’s great indoor shopping experiences. College football fans, take note: Boca Raton is also home to Florida Atlantic University, which hosts the nationally televised Boca Raton Bowl each December. And, for soaking up the beautiful Florida sunshine, enjoy a round of golf on the award-winning county-run greens at Boca Raton’s Osprey Point Golf Course, with its lush Platinum Paspalum turf.

Mizner Park, Boca Raton

Lake Okeechobee & The Glades

This earthy region away from it all is your gateway to Lake Okeechobee, the secondlargest freshwater lake in the contiguous United States, with unparalleled bass fishing, bird-watching and airboat tours available to visitors who want a taste of Old Florida. The fun extends just outside of the water, too, with an immersive walk or bike on the Lake Okeechobee Scenic Trail.

While in the Delray Beach area, stop by the B.F. James & Frances Jane Bright Mini-Park on the east side of Northwest Fifth Avenue, 100 feet south of Northwest First Street. Read the bronze marker commemorating the history of this location and its role connecting the African-American population during the dark days of Jim Crow.

Park (2200 N. Flagler Drive; 561.804.4900).

Continue your West Palm Beach history trail at the Northwest Neighborhood Historic District (North Rosemary and Douglas avenues, bounded by Northwest Second and 11th streets), a once-segregated portion of West Palm Beach whose buildings were designed by African-American builders, contractors and architects. The district is home to the 1893-vintage Tabernacle Church (801 Eighth St., West Palm Beach; 561.832.8338), which boasts the only NeoRomanesque Revival architecture in the Northwest District. It also contains the Sunset Lounge, a legendary concert venue that welcomed Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong and Count Basie on its stage.

International Gay Polo Brings LGBTQ Equity to the Forefront

For five days each April, the National Polo Center, the only high-goal polo venue in North America, opens its fields exclusively to LGBTQ competitors. The International Gay Polo Tournament, created to generate awareness and to move the needle forward for LGBTQ athletes, has become a fixture in the Palm Beaches, merging challenging horse sport with a lively atmosphere, complete with themed tailgate parties, DJ-spun dance music and pop-up salons, creating a wholly unique spin on the centuries-old game of polo.

It’s just one of the ways the Palm Beaches supports diversity, equity and inclusion, both on and off the field, among players and spectators alike. Palm Beach County and its LGBTQ-centered organizations offer a safe and welcoming atmosphere year-round, while annual events such as the two-day Palm Beach Pride parade (each March) and Stonewall Black and White Ball (each June) shine a spotlight on the community. In fact, West Palm Beach recently ranked 10th in the United States in Hotels.com's list of the 10 friendliest LGBTQ cities in the country. To be “out” in the Palm Beaches is to be among friends.

Shopping is a beloved pastime in The Palm Beaches—and a form of entertainment in and of itself. Between our indoor and al fresco malls, our world-famous shopping street and our special antiques district, you’re sure to find that special something.
