It is truly fantastic to stroll along the beach front especially as the sun goes down. Unfortunately, the week we were there was spoiled by sand excavation that not only caused continual noise, but turned the beach ugly. No one could determined how long this was to continue in the future.
I'd say this is kind of a secret spot even though you'll be sharing the sand with plenty of other "lobsters." The beach off Ocean Drive in Palm Beach is clean, quite, and simply wonderful.
Bring your own blanket and beach chairs and be prepared for the challenge to park. Plan on a fee to get near this beach. Thick sand and nice clean beach. Not crowded. It is really for the folks that love to sit or walk the beach. Very laid back area.
Take a dip in the Atlantic. Wow - warm and so blue. Loved it!Not easy to find a spot that is not bordered by private homes or hotels, but worth the find.
Generic beach. "$5" an hour metered parking. Not! I forgot my Rolls! Forgot to mention the special sand brought in from the Rivierra!
Great beach for a stroll before sunset. It was very peaceful to hear the waves crash along the shore. The beach was rocky in a few places but clean overall.
We were surprised to find ample open parking right in front of the beach but now I know why. We parked and paid at a pay machine that DOES NOT give a receipt. We stayed for an hour and I went back to pay more for additional parking. All seemed well until we got back to the car and had a ticket. Since the machine does not give a receipt, there is no way to verify you paid. Moral of the story is Do Not park right in front of the beach!!The beach itself was fine but not great.
Seeing the sun rise over the Atlantic was magical. Stroll along the beach and meet other sun worshippers and all kinds of birds. Some construction areas.
The beach is typical Florida sand- sort of dark and unappealing. However, the view of the mansions is not to be missed. Architecturally unbelievable- not the mansions of millionaires, but of BILLIONAiRES!
I do love the beach yet the walk to it is challenging due to the lose sand. The edge slopes off and you are there. We saw lots of silver fish jumping and a dolphin, pelicans diving and even a shark. Quite beautiful.
