West Palm Beach Florida

West Palm Beach Florida is a much more populated, albeit less exclusive beach town, than its wealthy sister, Palm Beach.

Luckily, it still boasts the same white sandy beaches topped with crystal clear blue water.

You won’t feel snubbed or inferior without a fat wallet when you come here because there are all classes and all different types of people here. You will fit right in; rich, poor or in-between.

While West Palm Beach may not be as high-class as Palm Beach, some would say it’s brimming with more character because its population is so much more diverse.

Public beach access is not an issue here, so you’re free to enjoy the glorious beach in peace and quiet… well, not quite.

The beach is usually pretty crowded but that’s part of its appeal.

There’s definitely room to share and spare on this gorgeous beach and there’s always something going on around you. As for people watching, it just doesn’t get any better than this.

This is a great family vacation destination and is popular for couples as well.
