Local Lifestyle
Residents of this peaceful stretch of the Florida shoreline enjoy otherworldly solitude and high quality of life. In an effort to prevent overcrowding and preserve the quiet aesthetic of the communities, development has been kept to a minimum over the years. Much of daily life revolves around the unmatched beauty afforded to lucky locals by their pristine location. Beach days, diving, boating, and other aquatic activities are abundant. Nearby award-winning resorts boast premier on-site dining, pools with panoramic Atlantic views, and a retreat from an already picturesque lifestyle.
Dining, Entertainment, and Shopping
A classic breakfast and brunch experience is found at John G’s Restaurant in Plaza Del Mar. Since 1973, this iconic family-friendly eatery has earned a loyal following among both locals and visitors alike for their classically perfect French toast, fish and chips, croissant sandwiches, and seafood combo plates.
Another historic site for seaside eats is the Old Key Lime House. This appropriately named lime green establishment features the largest tiki bar in South Florida, waterfront dining, and panoramic seaside views. This iconic hotspot is known for delectable just-caught seafood and, of course, a silky key lime pie piled high with inches of light, fluffy meringue.
The Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa is a Forbes Five Star-winning luxury resort situated on a private beach. Recognized by dozens of publications around the world for their unmatched service, the resort was also recognized as Florida’s top resort in the 2016 Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards.
Across the street from the luxurious, oceanfront Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa, Plaza Del Mar is a collection of vibrant boutiques, delicious restaurants, upscale services, and other important local businesses. The Plaza regularly holds a series of events throughout the year, such as live music performances, shopping affairs, and more.
Just up the shoreline, the Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach is another luxurious spot to get away from it all. An unparalleled international reputation precedes itself as guests are rewarded with top-notch service, five-star dining, a relaxing spa, poolside drink service, watercraft rentals, and so much more.
The waterfront market, taking place every Sunday, is held at Lantana Bicentennial Park, just off the Ocean Avenue Bridge. Twenty different artisan food vendors present a wide variety of local produce, fresh-caught seafood, meats, honey, baked goods, and other fine handcrafted creations. A slightly more outdoorsy shopping experience can be found at Lantana‘s Shoreline Green Market.
Things To Do
In these seaside communities, you’ll always find plenty of ways to spend your days, whether you’re relaxing at the beach, playing catch at the park, or exploring one of the local events.
One of South Florida’s premier food festivals is the South Florida Garlic Fest, an annual celebration of everyone’s favorite fragrant herb. The affectionately named “Garlic Alley” features over 100 garlic-infused items such as tacos, sandwiches, shrimp scampi, and countless others. On the main stage, attendees can enjoy lively performers such as The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bruno Mars tribute bands, and others.
More serene days are spent at McKinley Park within Hypoluxo Island. This large park offers peace and seclusion in an already tranquil neighborhood, with shady trees, a playground, and plenty of open green space to relax.
Schools
Local schools provide an unmatched level of attention to its pupils to better prepare them for the future. One example of this is:
