A destination with history and style
The history of The Palm Beaches began in the late 19th century, when railroad magnate Henry Morrison Flagler transformed the region into a tropical oasis. With magnificent hotels such as the legendary The Breakerswhich established itself as a symbol of opulent wealth over the decades, he laid the foundations for an era of luxury that continues to this day. Once a meeting place for Hollywood stars such as Cary Grant, Errol Flynn and the Kennedy family, Palm Beach has never lost its luster. But today, a fresh, youthful spirit is revitalizing the region - young, creative minds from New York and Los Angeles have discovered The Palm Beaches for themselves, enticing visitors with hip art galleries, trendy restaurants and a fresh energy.
