The Town of Palm Beach—often called Palm Beach Island to distinguish it from Palm Beach County—is one of Florida’s most exclusive destinations. Situated on a 16-mile barrier island along the Atlantic, the town is separated from the mainland cities of West Palm Beach and Lake Worth by the Intracoastal Waterway. Known worldwide for its pristine beaches, luxury estates, and upscale shopping along Worth Avenue, Palm Beach represents the height of South Florida elegance.
Palm Beach rose to prominence in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as an exclusive resort developed by Henry Flagler. The construction of The Breakers hotel and the Florida East Coast Railway brought wealthy visitors who established winter estates along the coastline. Since then, Palm Beach has maintained its reputation as a haven for prominent families, international dignitaries, and seasonal residents seeking privacy and luxury. Today, the island retains its historic architecture, manicured landscapes, and timeless appeal, standing as one of the most desirable addresses in the United States.
Palm Beach is not only a residential haven but also a hub for leisure and culture. The town offers renowned golf and tennis clubs, the historic Breakers Palm Beach resort, and cultural venues such as the Henry Morrison Flagler Museum. With year-round sunshine and a season running from November through April, Palm Beach attracts a global clientele seeking warm-weather retreats, charity galas, and exclusive social events.
Beyond its beaches and clubs, Palm Beach is a destination for world-class shopping and dining. Worth Avenue is lined with luxury boutiques, jewelers, and galleries, rivaling the finest shopping streets in the world. Fine dining restaurants and private clubs host an active social calendar, from charity galas to seasonal gatherings, ensuring there is always a cultural highlight for visitors and residents alike.
While Palm Beach enjoys sunshine throughout the year, the peak season runs from November to April, when seasonal residents and international visitors flock to the island. During these months, Palm Beach becomes the center of exclusive society events, including fundraising galas, art exhibitions, and high-profile gatherings. The nearby Palm Beach International Boat Show draws a global yachting clientele, while equestrian events in Wellington attract riders and enthusiasts from around the world. For those seeking quieter escapes, the shoulder seasons offer a more relaxed pace while maintaining access to the island’s premier amenities.
Travelers arriving by private jet typically use Palm Beach International Airport (PBI), located less than 4 miles from the island. PBI features three runways, the longest at 10,000 feet, capable of accommodating all business jet types from light aircraft to VIP airliners. Multiple FBOs, including Signature Flight Support, Atlantic Aviation, and Jet Aviation, provide full-service handling with VIP lounges, customs, and secure ground transport. With its proximity to the island, PBI is unmatched for direct and efficient arrivals.
For those traveling within the broader region, Boca Raton Airport (KBCT) and Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (KFXE) are additional nearby options offering quick access to Palm Beach County’s resorts and coastal communities. North Palm Beach County General Aviation Airport (F45) also serves as a convenient reliever for private flights into the area.
