Escape - Explore the vibrant and diverse The Palm Beaches 

Cleaner sands, warmer waters, and fewer crowds welcomes you on the softer side of Florida. See and experience a destination that exceeds all expectations, waiting for discerning travellers who refuse to accept the mundane.


Everyone’s The Palm Beaches


The Palm Beaches provide something for everyone, regardless of budget or interests. Enjoy the waterways and go fishing, boating, paddling or snorkelling or relax on the tropical beaches.



Retail Therapy


Spend some time shopping on Worth Avenue or one of the outdoor malls. Make sure you have enough room in your suitcase since shopping at The Palm Beaches is just as appealing as the beaches. You'll find something for everyone on your list, from vintage bargains to luxury goods to one-of-a-kind treasures. Art galleries, beauty salons, and chic patio cafés serve cool sips and imaginative snacks in between the shops.



Art & Culture


Visiting The Palm Beaches is an event in and of itself, but their year-round festival calendar with the atmosphere of celebration will provide you with even more reasons to go. Festivals showcase the essence of a city as it gathers to honour its history and culture. Even the winter has a lot to offer with its mild temperature (around 21°C).



Festivals


The Street Painting Festival in Lake Worth, held every February, celebrates this artistic community's passion for the arts, while the Wellington Winter Equestrian Festival showcases the village's western culture. Grab a picnic blanket and travel to Carlin Park for a free outdoor professional performance on two weekends in July when the temperatures cool in the evening hours. Delray Beach's big-city elegance meets small-town charm during the Hatsume Fair, an international festival of Japanese culture held each April. The South Florida Fair offers old-fashioned family enjoyment for your kids—or your inner child, like the 108 feet tall Ferris Wheel, parades, live music and traditional carnival games. SunFest, one of the area’s largest music festivals, is always full of positive energy.



Culinary Trip


Every meal becomes a memorable occasion when dining at The Palm Beaches. Meals are served with live music, and diners are treated to 100% outdoor Intracoastal beachfront dining. At the Boca Bacchanal or Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival, sample gourmet delights from Florida's premier chefs. For example, autumn is feast-festival perfection. During Flavour Palm Beach in September, 30 of The Palm Beaches' greatest restaurants offer prix fixe meals for 30 days, providing an excellent opportunity to sample the dishes that define the region.


Satisfy your sweet craving at one of The Palm Beaches' great dessert establishments. Serenity Garden Tea House & Café in West Palm Beach serves high tea on a three-tier plate of delectable treats. If you're looking for a boost of energy or a caffeine fix, the popular coffee shops in The Palm Beaches will provide you with the motivation you need to get out and explore.


The Palm Beaches' craft beer scene is booming, with over 19 brewers of different sizes making their impact. Visit breweries and attractions all across Palm Beach County on the Ale Trail of the The Palm Beaches. Don't forget about Steel Tie Spirits, which produces smooth-tasting hand-crafted rum and vodka.


Golf and Sports

The Palm Beaches are the ideal place to put your feet up—or into snorkel fins, stand-up paddle boards, or golf shoes on the world-class greens. Visitors of all ages, interests, and abilities can participate in a variety of outdoor activities. Soak up the Florida heat, see some genuinely lovely landscapes, and venture out into the wide outdoors. From the Intracoastal Waterway and Lake Worth Lagoon, four major inlets run to the Atlantic Ocean. More boat charters and boat rentals are available here than you might think. Play captain for a day or hire a professional to plot your course. On a twilight sail, share beverages. A thrilling speedboat ride or a Jet Ski ride will get your motor going.

Also, during Spring Training, you may watch MLB all-stars battle it out, golf's top players fight for PGA tournament glory, or enjoy the Sport of Kings during the Palm Beach International Polo Season. The Palm Beaches are a fantastic place to learn and practice to play golf, and those serious golfers should start their round at The Palm Beach Gardens. It's simple to see why They're Florida's Golf Capital®, with year-round play and courses created by some of the game's best architects. You'll follow in the footsteps of legends and be treated like golf royalty on their more than 160 sun-drenched golf courses. After all, the top golfers in the world don't simply play here; they live here (which means we have majorly high standards).
