A cosmopolitan city in south Florida, West Palm Beach is known for a bustling downtown with restaurants, bars, galleries, and shops. Located across Lake Worth Lagoon from glamorous Palm Beach, West Palm Beach is a destination for art and history lovers, thanks to landmarks such as the Norton Museum of Art and the Cox Science Center. However, there are also plenty of outdoorsy things to do in West Palm Beach, too, from snorkeling excursions, catamaran cruises, and eco tours to see manatees, to fishing charters and parasailing trips.
