    This is more of a private area / beach on the wealthier side of west palm beach. Donald Trump Actually lives down the street from here! So if you're down for a chill Sunday beach day with a little bit of history mixed in I would totally recommend coming here. It's a wide area not so congested so you can bring your umbrella tents whatever makes for a good beach day and still have space between you and other people. The water was amazing and the views incredible !

    The beach is beautiful! The two hour free parking from 8am-1pm is nice to have. This beach has a lot of issues: -nasty filthy stinky bathrooms, the worst in the county, they never clean them, plus graffiti all over -steep drop off to go down to beach, a lawsuit waiting to happen, very dangerous, they should dig out the stairway better to make it easier for seniors -Tons of dogs here, a lot of fishing -women lifeguard is always swimming, jogging, surfing, talking with friends all the time while working using the rescue surfboard, wonder if there was ever an emergency? it says no surfing on the beach on the sign. -The police and lifeguards are weak here, they do not enforce all the dogs and fishing and surfing on the beach and in swimming areas. -The girl lifeguard here is always out running, swimming, surfing, socializing, and goofing off while working, it is surprising that the supervisors would allow her do do this on the PB taxpayers' dime. Her and her girlfriend are using the rescue surfboards to surf and play around while she is supposed to be working and protecting the public, you never see anyone in the tower watching out for swimmers, what are these lifeguards paid to do? Seems like an abuse of power and tax payer money. Plus the sign clearly says, no surfing, yet she is and does in swimming areas close to swimmers, so dangerous. The women lifeguard doesn't seem to think people notice daily her lack of work and always goofing around, she does not seem to take her job seriously at all, seems very unprofessional and it is surprising PB authorities would allow this. Plus it is not fair to her coworkers. -there are tons of beer and alcohol bottles and cans all over and a lot of people drinking here, although the sign says no alcoholic beverages, there is no enforcement of all the drinking here. -there are a lot of rocks here, exposed and under water, you have to be very careful swimming here. -it would be nice if people followed the rules here and the police and lifeguards enforced them They have a lot f nice picnic areas to enjoy, covered too, with bbq grills, plus tennis and an old school, there is a lot to enjoy here! We really do enjoy the beach and ocean water!

    Nice public beach. Public enough to have a small full parking lot but not nearly as public as the lake worth beach about 2 miles south. We first went there and it's a HUGE parking lot not a single open spot, super packed so we found this one it had bathrooms and picnic tables but then you gotta go over the big hill to get to the beach. Theres a smooth hill to go up and then stairs to go down. Theres handicap parking, parking that's free for the 1st two hours and then parking free for the 1st two hours until 1pm then you have to pay. 4 stars because the seaweed was outta control.

    Great beach but expensive parking. Drive a half mile to Lake Worth Park and pay only $3 per hour to park for the exact same strip of sand!

    I walked through a St Pattys Day Fest in Downtown WPB. Lots of beer, Food and Music. I was trying…read moreto embrace my Irish roots, after doing an ancestry dna test and discovering I have Irish ancestry. I also went to Havana a cuban restaurant and the Cuban sandwich was everything. Would definitely go back and have a sit down meal at Havana. I did a to go order because the wait was too liong. Overall I really enjoyed WPB. Till next time

    With the Palm Beach Brightline station built at its center - and the I95 exit ramp really close -…read moreDowntown West Palm is a quick 90 minute ride to more spots to drink and take in culture. Most recently, I came by last weekend for the Downtown Palm Beach Art Festival - basically a block of tents and booths from local artisans next to The Square (aka the remodeled City Place). One of the pieces certainly caught my eye and I have the artist's contact info. There are also some commercial outlet stores in the mall itself, as well as chain restaurants and a movie theater. Walk a little further south, and you'll find the Convention Center where I've attended other art events. Walk northeast and you'll find the restaurant row of Clematis, a mix of condos and office buildings including the spooky looking ATT Switching Tower like the famous Thomas Street building in NYC..Actually, in general Downtown West Palm strikes me as 90's Manhattan vibe.. Away from the architecture, food and drinks the highlight is the park in front of the Intracoastal Waterway. Whether you park your yacht, sit on the benches or just take a stroll it is a real afternoon treat! It's across from a park / pavillion that can be rented out for weddings. During the holiday season, there are also some sand sculptures right by the water. Definitely worth the drive!
