Boynton Beach is a big, sunny personality wrapped up in a coastal city, proudly standing as the third-largest community in Palm Beach County. Life here moves to a tropical rhythm, where waterfront dining, vibrant entertainment, and warm ocean breezes are part of the everyday experience.
Nestled along Florida’s sunny southeast coast between West Palm Beach and Boca Raton, Boynton Beach charms visitors with a dash of old-Florida nostalgia, a splash of waterfront energy, and plenty of salt-air fun for all ages.
The adventure often begins at Boynton Harbor Marina, where everything you need for a day on the water is ready and waiting. Rent a boat or jet ski, head out on a fishing or scuba charter, or simply soak up the marina buzz. When appetites kick in, waterfront restaurants are just steps away, serving up coastal flavors, breezy views, and live music. It’s also easy to grab a quick coffee, bagel, or sandwich before heading back out into the sunshine.
Beach lovers are spoiled for choice here. Oceanfront Park welcomes visitors with calm waters, cabana service, and thoughtful amenities, while Ocean Inlet Park is a favorite for fishing, snorkeling, and launching kayaks or canoes. For a change of scenery, nature lovers can head inland to explore a vast wildlife refuge filled with winding trails, guided tours, and a scenic boardwalk gliding through a cypress swamp.
Boynton Beach adds a creative flair with public art scattered throughout the city, and families will enjoy hands-on fun at the local children’s museum. Shoppers and diners can stroll along walkable Ocean Avenue or explore the nearby mall for more places to eat, browse, and unwind.
Come October, Ocean Avenue transforms into a playful spectacle during the Haunted Pirate Fest & Mermaid Splash, where live music, swashbuckling pirates, shimmering mermaids, and kid-friendly activities turn the city into a storybook celebration by the sea.
