Advisor - Palm Beach: Legacy, Luxury & Leisure—Plus West Palm
Curator’s statement

Palm Beach is synonymous with luxury and old-world glamour. It’s a barrier island known for its pristine beaches, Gilded Age architecture, and upscale ambiance. If you are looking for timeless indulgence, look no further. West Palm Beach is separated by three bridges to the mainland and offers a more urban and eclectic experience. It’s a dynamic city known for its cultural attractions, nightlife, festivals, and growing culinary scene. Many love to stay in Palm Beach and tie in elements from West Palm to round out their time here.

Things to do in Palm Beach

  • Worth Avenue: Iconic shopping! Some amazing restaurants along this stretch, too. Explore the vias while you sip your coffee and shop the day away. Have lunch at Pizza Alfresco, followed by a dip in the ocean.

  • The Flagler Museum: Henry Flagler’s mansion turned museum—calling all history buffs!

  • The Lake Trail: Run, walk, or bike, but don’t miss it. At six miles round trip, this is the most beautiful pathway along the water.

  • Society of the Four Arts: For your bit of culture, make sure to check their events calendar.

  • Royal Poinciana Plaza: More high-end retail and delicious food (St. Ambroeus, The Honor Bar, or Celis for a great smoothie).

  • Norton Museum of Art

  • Charter a boat and explore the Intracoastal Waterway

  • Peanut Island: Sand bar! If you don’t charter or have a boat, there is a water taxi that will bring you. This used to be the Kennedy Bunker location. Amazing snorkeling.

  • Kravis Center: Check the events calendar!

  • West Palm Beach Green Market and Clematis Street

Places to eat & drink in Palm Beach
