Jupiter Area Beaches
This area has some of the best beaches in South Florida!  Our beach is not commercialized.  Parking is free and so is access to the beach.  You can walk the beach for miles without being in the shadows of high rise condos.  Contrary to many other places in South Florida, our beach is lined with tropical landscaping, sand dunes, palm trees, and protected sea turtle nests.

AND you don’t have to live right on the ocean to be close to our exceptional beaches.  Most of the condos, town homes, and single family neighborhoods are only a few minutes away by foot, bike, or car.  Many of the beaches in this area are Dog Friendly Beaches, and ALL are Family Friendly too.

Boating in North Palm Beach and Martin County

Florida has over 8,000 miles of coastline and 4,500 square miles of inland waterways, making it a paradise for boaters. From mega-yachts to wooden skiffs, having a boat is as normal as having a car for some Floridians. There are over 700,000 registered boats in the state, the 3rd highest rate in the country.

If you are a boater, or if you’d like to be a boater, Jupiter is an excellent location for you. The Intracoastal Waterway is a natural but dredged channel that extends 500 miles down the east coast of Florida to the tip of the Keys. It's a very popular boating route that runs through rivers, creeks and dredged canals. It is maintained by the Florida Inland Navigation District.

The Jupiter Inlet allows you quick access to the ocean, or you can cruise the Intracoastal Waterway North to Jupiter Island, or South to Singer Island.  Along the way there are several restaurants and bars that welcome their patrons arriving by boat.  Travel inland and the Loxahatchee River meanders it’s way through Jupiter and Tequesta.  Hundreds of canals allow residents of Jupiter ocean access from their very own private boat dock.  If you’d rather have someone else watch over your boat, there are several marinas in this area.
