Today we will talk about one of my favorite hobbies: shopping. Looking for the best places to do shopping in Florida is not a challenging task, as several options take our breath away. Personally, I love going to The Palm Beaches for a day trip since it has everything I need: the best restaurants, bars, and stores. 

Some of the best places in Palm Beach County include Mizner Park, the Royal Poinciana Plaza, Worth Ave, and the Town Center at Boca Raton. These are my absolute favorites and the ones I am constantly visiting. Let’s take a look at what they have to offer for your next shopping trip!

How to Get to West Palm Beach and Boca Raton with Brightline

The Florida Brightline passenger train offers a convenient and efficient way to travel to West Palm Beach and Boca Raton, two vibrant cities on Florida’s east coast. Brightline has quickly become a popular choice for locals and tourists seeking a hassle-free journey.

To reach West Palm Beach from Miami, simply board the Brightline train at MiamiCentral, the train’s primary hub located in downtown Miami. The journey from Miami to West Palm Beach takes approximately one hour.

Looking for High-end Shopping? Visit Mizner Park in Boca Raton 

As a self-proclaimed shopaholic, I recently had the pleasure of visiting Mizner Park in Boca Raton, and it was a paradise for luxury shopping enthusiasts like myself. From high-end fashion boutiques to exquisite jewelry stores, this destination caters to those seeking the finest things, like myself. 

I began exploring the well-curated collection of designer boutiques such as Jean-Pierre Klifa and Marcella’s. From stylish apparel to elegant accessories, these stores at Mizner Park offer a wide range of options. Also, the attentive and knowledgeable staff provided personalized assistance, ensuring a truly exceptional shopping experience.

Mizner Park also boasts an impressive selection of fine jewelry stores, leaving me in awe. Each store offered a unique collection of jewelry pieces, and I couldn’t resist trying on a few dazzling rings and necklaces that caught my eye at Anna Zuckerman and Les Bijoux. 

After indulging in some retail therapy, I took a break at one of the many upscale restaurants and cafes scattered throughout Mizner Park. Don’t forget to visit Max’s Grille and Loch Bar for fine dining and cocktails.

The Town Center at Boca Raton: My Personal Favorite

When it comes to premier shopping destinations in Boca Raton, the Town Center Boca Raton is your best pick. It offers the best high-end fashion boutiques and renowned department stores such as Bloomingdale’s, Cartier, Carolina Herrera, and Gucci, among others. 

In addition to the fashion-forward offerings, the Town Center Boca Raton also boasts an exceptional assortment of home decor, electronics, and specialty stores. The Town Center Boca Raton truly has something for everyone. 

When it came time for a well-deserved break, the Town Center Boca Raton provided many dining options to satisfy any craving. I indulged in a delicious meal at Mariposa at Neiman Marcus. The experience was just perfect, it put together both of my favorite things: eating and shopping!

The Square West Palm Beach is the Place for Shopping and Art

If you’re seeking a vibrant blend of shopping and art, look no further than The Square West Palm in Downtown West Palm Beach. It offers a unique experience that seamlessly combines the joy of retail therapy with the appreciation of artistic expression.

The Square West Palm boasts a selection of boutique shops and artisanal stores. My favorites at the moment are Lululemon and Tommy Bahama. 

Beyond the shopping, Downtown West Palm Beach also showcases a thriving art scene. The plaza serves as a platform for local artists, with regular art exhibitions and live performances that truly bring the space to life. Don’t forget to visit the famous “Wishing Tree,” and the amazing installations by international and local artists.

The Royal Poinciana Plaza: The Place for Luxury

The Royal Poinciana Plaza in Palm Beach has to be one of the most luxurious places to shop in the area. They have fifty selected brands, from household names like Hermes and Jimmy Choo to more indie brands like Marissa Collections and Rani Arabella. 

At the Royal Poinciana Plaza, not only can you shop for yourself, but you can also find incredible kids’ stores, home decor, and even Sotheby’s International Realty if you’re looking for luxury real estate. 

With its diverse selection of dining establishments, there is definitely an option that will satisfy the most demanding of taste buds. I gave the Palm Beach Grill a chance when I visited, and I loved the experience. The plaza also hosts a variety of events, including art exhibitions, live performances, and seasonal celebrations. 
The Royal Poinciana Plaza embodies the spirit of luxury, sophistication, and impeccable taste. Its commitment to providing an unparalleled shopping experience in a captivating environment sets it apart.

Worth Avenue: The Upscale Shopping and Dining Destination in Palm Beach

Last but not least, if you don’t feel like going to a mall, Worth Avenue in Palm Beach is the place to go. They say, if you haven’t been to Worth Avenue, you’ve never been to Palm Beach! This landmark holds luxury boutiques, restaurants, eateries, cafes, and the best part? It’s next to the ocean. 

If you want to stay close to Worth Avenue, there is a wide range of hotels it holds for an authentic Palm Beach experience, such as The Colony or the Brazilian Court.
Additionally, each Fall the Worth Ave Association offers Worth Avenue Historic Walking Tours to learn more about this landmark’s history. I will definitely be buying tickets.
