Tips

If you have extra days, consider adding a day trip to the nearby Everglades for an airboat tour or extending your island adventure with a visit to Key Biscayne. To shorten the trip, skip the science center and replace the sunset cruise with a relaxing beach evening, which still captures the best of West Palm Beach’s coastal charm.
