Hey, Wanna-Be Floridians! 🏖️🍹 If you can’t live here full-time, you’d better make the most of every sun-soaked moment. 🌴🍹🐬 Palm Beach is all about palm-fringed beaches, pastel-pink façades, and that dreamy “island time” vibe. Whether you’re here to unwind or treat yourself, these seven easygoing adventures will have you feeling like a local in no time. 😎👣
Here are my Top 7 To Do's when visiting Palm Beach, Florida 🩴
1. Bury Your Toes in Palm Beach Municipal Beach 🏖️
Think silky white sand, gentle Atlantic waves, and zero crowds. Rent a cushy chaise and umbrella, order a fresh-squeezed juice (or a frosty piña colada 🍍), and watch the boats glide by. Feeling fancy? Phipps Ocean Park’s palm groves are just a stroll north and totally pic-worthy.
2. Shop (or Window-Shop) Worth Avenue’s Chic Boutiques 🛍️✨
Worth Avenue is Palm Beach’s little luxury lane minus the chaos. Meander under vine-draped colonnades, pop into The Webster for curated finds, then hit Café L’Europe for quiche Lorraine and sparkling rosé. Pro tip: the outdoor tables are perfect for people-watching! 😉
3. Cruise the Intracoastal at Golden Hour 🚤🌅
Swap sidewalks for sea spray with a sunset boat tour along the Intracoastal Waterway. Sip wine, nibble charcuterie, and maybe spot a dolphin or two popping up for a hello. Small-group launches from Sailfish Marina mean zero crowds just you, your crew, and that epic pink sky.
4. Sip Rosé on The Breakers’ Shaded Patio 🥂🌺
You don’t need a room key to chill at The Circle bar. Pull up a wicker chair beneath terracotta columns, order chilled rosé or a gimlet, and watch polo players head off to matches or just soak in the ocean-front breeze. Pure bliss.
5. Get Your History Fix at the Flagler Museum 🏰📜
On a rainy or “too hot” day, step into Gilded Age glam at the Flagler Museum. Think Tiffany stained-glass windows, marble courtyards, and grand parlors. The guided tour’s relaxed pace makes it feel more like friendly storytelling than “history class.”
6. Pedal the Lake Trail for Chill Vibes 🚴♂️🌿
Rent a bike or e-bike and cruise the 2.5-mile Lake Trail. You’ll hug the Intracoastal, breeze past yachts, and roll through palm-shaded parks. Stop at Tipsy Boar for a cold brew or gourmet coffee then coast back whenever you’re ready.
7. Dig Into Island-Style Eats at E.R. Bradley’s Terrace 🍤🍹
This waterfront staple is all Adirondack chairs, live tunes, and seafood done right. Coconut-crusted shrimp, lobster rolls, and Key lime pie = total comfort. Bonus: weekend nights often mean laid-back live music under the palms.
