About Palm Beach Shores, FL
Situated on a picturesque peninsula between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, Palm Beach Shores is a charming coastal community with a relaxed island vibe. The neighborhood offers a variety of housing options, from cozy ranch-style homes to soaring high-rise apartments, all with stunning views of the surrounding water. “It’s just a little boutique-type place,” says Greg Forest, global resource advisor for Sotheby’s International Realty Inc. Residents of Palm Beach Shores are proud of their community motto, “Best Little Town in Florida.” “You’ve got a ten-block park in the middle of the area,” says Forest. “There are places for just walking and just bike riding. And there are private beaches where you can get your own parking decal.”
The homes in Palm Beach Shores are a diverse mix of architectural styles, including Spanish Revival, Mediterranean and contemporary. Forest says there are also many bungalows and current renovations of older homes. Many of the homes feature lush landscaping, palm trees and private pools. There are also a number of gated communities in the neighborhood, offering residents an extra layer of privacy and security. In general, the neighborhood is considered to be affluent, with homes starting in the mid-$500,000 range and going well into the millions. Ritz-Carlton high-rise apartments also offer panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway.
Palm Beach Shores is home to several highly rated public schools. Lincoln Elementary School, Kennedy Middle School and Dwyer High School all received an A-minus rating from Niche. All three schools offer students a challenging academic program and a variety of extracurricular activities.
Residents have access to a variety of amenities, including Ocean Reef Park, which features a beach, a playground and a picnic area. Phil Foster Memorial Park is a popular spot for snorkeling and diving, while MacArthur Beach State Park features a beach, a nature trail and a historic lighthouse. And Lake Worth Lagoon is a saltwater lagoon that separates Palm Beach Shores from the mainland that is a popular spot for boating, fishing and swimming.
When residents aren’t taking advantage of their proximity to water, they like to hang out at the Ocean Walk Shopping Center, which has restaurants and stores like Publix, Walgreens, Starbucks and Off The Hook, a local store featuring tackle and bait as well as an eclectic collection of local items. Residents also like to frequent Sailfish Tiki Bar, where they can taxi their boat right up to their table as Calypso music rings softly through the air. Customers can watch the boats come in as they sit under table umbrellas enjoying drinks with tropical umbrellas hanging off the rim. Diners can enjoy chef-selected cuisine or they can choose their own fresh seafood from the extensive menu.
While most amenities are within walking distance, those seeking public transportation to go further out can utilize the Palm Tran bus system. The buses run frequently throughout the neighborhood and provide connections to other parts of Palm Beach County, including Good Samaritan Medical Center, which is located in West Palm Beach. With its scenic waterfront setting, diverse housing options, and excellent schools, Palm Beach Shores beckons new residents looking for a home oasis.
