There’s a combination of niche and refined marinas with an ultra-exclusive appeal here, alongside laid-back marinas open to the public where you can expect a warm welcome, with a total of 6 marinas in West Palm Beach itself and yet more in surrounding municipalities. Try out the iconic Palm Harbor Marina, a 200-slip destination on the water just steps away from Downtown, which offers room for vessels up to 300-feet in length. The Safe Harbor Rybovich, a main-stay of the boating scene in this town, has 80 slips available for vessels up to 330-feet long, making it a good choice for those who intend to rock up in a megayacht. The sophisticated Palm Beach Yacht Club, founded in 1890, offers a genteel alternative for those looking to connect with the city’s boating elite, and boasts 47 slips on the lagoon.
Alternatively, drop in at the Town of Palm Beach Marina, a public facility with 84-slips and a popular option for hardy fishers heading offshore in search of Mahi-Mahi or Tuna. Those who prefer to zip around the backwaters can set off from hundreds of private jetties and slips, exploring the three large lakes and inlets situated here. Lake Mangonia and Clear Lake are two linked bodies of inland water perfect for paddling and bay-boating, while the sprawling Lake Worth Lagoon is a hit with speedboaters who like to accelerate all the way south from Palm Beach Shores to South Palm Beach. If you are in town at the beginning of December then make sure to check out the annual Wirth M. Munroe Ocean Race, one of the oldest regattas in the nation, that has been challenging sailing teams to race from Miami to Palm Beach since 1957.
Central to this city’s yachting industry is the iconic Palm Beach International Yacht Show, a lavish affair showcasing the latest yacht releases at the very high-end of the market. Not as big or as busy as the equivalent show in Fort Lauderdale, the event attracts more than 55,000 visitors per year who come to check out over 800 different vessels in a refined, more intimate setting. There’s also over 200 marine-related firms operating in Palm Beach County, supporting over 22,000 jobs when accounting for indirect spending in the area. Yacht builders located here include Bahama Boat Works, manufacturers of sleek center-console fishing craft with a competitive edge, and Michael Rybovich & Sons, who have been making custom sportfishers since the firm was founded back in 1919.
