Travel Guide to West Palm Beach
Sightseeing
If you love manatees or always wanted to see one this is the place for you. During the warm months you will not spot manatees but the education center has some great exhibits and the view of the intracoastal waterway is picture perfect. During a cold snap dozens of manatees will congregate in the warm waters spilling out of the power plant. Great picnic spot anytime of year. Best of all its only a few blocks from the apartment and free.

Fantastic place to get away from it all yet be close to it all. Beautiful little beaches, picnic areas, BBQ grills and great snorkeling. In summer and holidays, this island is packed with boaters but there are always areas to get away from the crowds. A water taxi from the Port of Palm Beach marina or Sailfish marina will leave you on the island for a day excursion or you can rent a boat or kayak to get there from local vendors.
Insider tip: check tide charts and visit as the tide is coming in(going up). The water becomes as clear as any carribean island. Currents can be strong so it is best to stay in shallow water if you're not a good swimmer.

The Beverly Hills of Florida. Whether window shopping or people watching it is a great place for both. Spring and summer months offer less crowds and sometimes better prices on luxury goods.
insider tip: On either side of Worth Ave are interesting corridors and walkways where you will find more shops and some hidden gem restaurants. The architecture invokes a European town and there are affordable dining options throughout. Explore.

A north/south corridor that is the quickest route to the Port of Palm Beach and downtown West Palm Beach from the unit. There is an excellent little grocery store located a block from the apartment. There are also gas stations and a couple of restaurants. Good for quick stops for essentials. It's probably best to avoid later at night on foot.

Транспорт
Drives and transport
Florida isn't known for public transportation but WPB does have some options, especially in and around downtown. I highly recommend downloading the Circuit app as these electric vehicles are available for free throughout downtown and to and from Palm Beach island. Downtown and Northwood Village also have a free van shuttle called Ride WPB. Brightbike are bright yellow rental bikes with stations throughout downtown.
There are lots of garages downtown. Look for City garages for a low rate of just $2 for 2 hours weekdays/$5 all-day weekends. On-street metered parking is also available.
