Things to Do

Whether you’re here for a week or an afternoon, The Palm Beaches are a playground for every traveler, budget and interest. Relax on one of our tropical beaches. Enjoy fishing, boating, paddling or snorkeling in our pristine waterways. Indulge in retail therapy on Worth Avenue or one of our outdoor malls.

And we’re just getting warmed up.
