Lassen Sie das Auto stehen. Parken Sie einmal und erkunden Sie die Gegend mit dem Fahrrad. Beginnen Sie Ihren Morgen mit einem Kaffee in der Innenstadt von West Palm Beach und radeln Sie dann über die Royal Park Bridge nach Palm Beach Island. Fahren Sie den Lake Trail entlang, schlendern Sie die Worth Avenue entlang, holen Sie sich das Mittagessen in einem lokalen Café, radeln Sie zu einem der versteckten öffentlichen Strandzugänge von Palm Beach für ein Picknick und lassen Sie den Nachmittag damit ausklingen, die Boote am Palm Beach Inlet kommen und gehen zu sehen. Das ist die perfekte Art, beide Seiten des Gewässers zu erleben – und jene Seite von Palm Beach, die die meisten Besucher sonst nie zu sehen bekommen.
