THE COAST
The Palm Beaches are a Playground for Wellness Adventure
BY GRACE TOBY
tretched along Florida’s southeast
S
coast, The Palm Beaches—hailed as
“America’s First Resort Destination”—
have rest and rejuvenation coursing through
their DNA. With 39 vibrant, yet serene towns to
explore, connecting with nature or indulging
in wellness is always around the corner. From
meandering waterways and broad beaches to
a growing selection of spa and wellness expe-
riences, this sunny slice of paradise invites
you to unwind on your terms.
HORSEPLAY IN WELLINGTON
For equestrian enthusiasts, reserve seats at a
Sunday polo match at the National Polo
Center in Wellington. Between January and
April, horses thunder by, and the game’s ele-
gance and energy come alive. At halftime,
join the crowd for the signature “divot
stomp,” a quirky ritual that connects fans
with the sport.
TURTLE’S PACE IN JUNO BEACH
Want something gentler? Visit Loggerhead
Marinelife Center in Juno Beach. This sea
turtle hospital and conservation centre wel-
comes visitors for free, though donations are
encouraged. Home to Florida’s largest sea
turtle hospital, guests can stroll exhibits and
get a peek at turtles undergoing rehabilita-
tion. Visit during nesting season (roughly
March through October), when evening
hatchling releases occur.
RESTORE, RECHARGE, REVIVE
Keep an eye out for events like the Eudẽmonia
Summit, a 3-day wellness gathering that fea-
tures leaders from neuroscience innovator
Andrew Huberman to positivity powerhouse
Gabby Bernstein in mindfulness, neuroscience
and healthy living. (November 5—8, 2026)
On Singer Island, indulge at Amrit Ocean
Resort—which features Florida’s largest spa—
where tranquil beaches, sea breezes and
serene wellness retreats offer a reset button.
Its crown jewel is Florida’s first indoor-out-
door hydrothermal therapy circuit, a ritual of
hot saunas and invigorating cold plunges.
SERENADED BY THE SEA
Sleep mere steps from the shore in a room
that overlooks the Atlantic Ocean at the newly
renovated Jupiter Beach Resort & Spa, which
boasts a stretch of prime beachfront. Watch a
lively band of sandpipers at dawn dart along
the water’s edge outside your window. Come
bedtime, you can drift off to sleep lulled by
the cadence of waves.
Anchored on a private beach, Four Seasons
Resort Palm Beach places adventure and
relaxation within effortless reach. Beneath
the palms, perfect your game on green-clay
tennis and pickleball courts, or explore the
ocean by kayak, paddleboard or snorkel. At
Florie’s, a restaurant where South Florida
meets the South of France, the menu uses
organic botanicals and herbs, while tableside
crêpes flambé, adding a touch of Old World
glamour.
WATERWAY WONDERS
Explore more than 200 km of scenic water-
ways aboard a water taxi boat tour, departing
from Sailfish Marina. Glide from Palm Beach
Shores to the tropical refuge of manmade
Peanut Island and venture onward to the
lavish Billionaire’s Row, where luxe water-
front estates, owned by the likes of Bill Gates
to the late Jimmy Buffett, line its shores. For a
laidback lunch on the water, cruise to legend-
ary Guanabanas and enjoy the view as boats
drift by.
