Palm Beach is one of the touristic destinations on US land that can be a true breath of fresh air for those living up north and looking for a couple of nice beaches and cool, clear water to unwind for a couple of weeks. No wonder that the seasonal population of the city is three times higher than that of the permanent residents- the city is more a resort, really, and it’s often visited by celebrities, flying from Miami, for example. Palm Beach has a tropical climate, which means that the temperature doesn’t go below 18 degrees Celsius never during the year- a pretty awesome change from -10 or -20 in Chicago or New York, right?
The summer is long and lasts from May to October, when temperatures tick around 32 degrees Celsius all the time and precipitations are often, so you might get soaked by “showers” that tend to appear out of nowhere. The winter, spanning from November to April, is equally enjoyable, as it’s quite warm, but particularly dry. Palm Beach is host of some really important US and foreign personalities, so don’t be too surprised to bump into Donald Trump, Rod Stewart or William S. Burroughs when shopping or queuing at the pool. There are many beaches around town you can check out, most of them being linked to boat and yacht rentals as well. And it’s quite a necessity to sail a little when in Palm Beach, as the experience is quite unique thanks to the reefs and crystal clear water around the shores of the city.
Palm Beach is heavy on sports, too, the kind the rich and famous usually do, but you can give them a try from your travel budget and not feel drained. You can try horseback riding, some golf, tennis played on high end courts with top instructors, cricket and more. There are many specialized centers around town and chances are that your hotel has its own sports center as well. Palm Beach is also the place to go if you want to enjoy a safari on US soil, as there’s a huge amusement park which is Safari themed and where you can actually see animals from the African continent just a few feet away- of course, you’ll be perfectly protected.
If you’re an art lover, there are many galleries and museums scattered around town, as well as many fabulous personal collections that are now available for public viewings. The Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens, for example, is basically the house, studio and gardens of renowned sculpture Ann Weaver Norton. The site contains nine monolithic sculptures, while the gardens host around 300 types of really rare palms. Also, make sure to check the Boca Raton Museum of Modern Art, which is home to around 4.000 works of art only in its permanent collection. Make sure to check the website of the museum before planning your Palm Beach trip, as you might want to tailor also according to some awesome, once-every-two-years exhibition. The museum also hosts a year round art school, if that’s your thing. Palm Beach has its own international airport, as well as being linked to the rest of the country via train and highways. Palm Beach private jet charter deals are constantly required by those organizing a trip to this sunny location, but without depending on the schedules of mainstream airlines.
