Curator’s statement
Jupiter is a charming yet upscale coastal town that offers a mix of Old Florida beauty, refined leisure, and outdoor adventure. With Palm Beach and West Palm Beach to its south, and sleepy Stuart to its north, Jupiter is a wonderful town to base your travels. One of my favorite things to do here is get out on the water: Hire a chartered private yacht or group catamaran and see the gorgeous homes lining the intracoastal while you enjoy a cocktail at sunset! See below for a few of my favorite things to do in Jupiter! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Things to do in Jupiter
Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse & Museum: climb for the best panoramic views of the area! Guided nature walks are also available.
Paddle-boarding and kayaking: Check out Blueline Surf & Co for guided eco-tours through the mangrove. Or, stop by Guanabanas to rent and launch from their dock. See manatees, sea turtles, and dolphins.
Coral Cove Park: This beach is known for its natural limestone rock formations and tide pools. The reef is full of sharks!
Juno Dunes Natural Area: peaceful hiking and walking trails through scrub habitat that overlooks the intracoastal.
Loggerhead Marinelife Center: sea turtle rehabilitation and education—we have a massive sea turtle population here and it is amazing to learn about it all!
Dubois Park: Local treasure with a protected lagoon. Adjacent to the inlet with views of the lighthouse.
Deep-sea fishing: A guided charter is the way to go.
Hobe Sound Farmers Market: Not only a great market, but if you have littles and need a low-key activity, this is not to be missed. Gem mining, among other things, is a fan favorite!
Jonathan Dickenson State Park: A beautiful place to go on a hike, explore Trapper Nelson’s old home on the river, or even camp! A wonderful retreat from the hustle and bustle.
Golf: I would be remiss not to mention golf in Jupiter!! Make sure to get out for an idyllic game while in town.
Maltz Theater: Make sure to check out the performance calendar!
