When to visit

The best time to visit West Palm Beach is during the winter months, from November to April, when the weather is mild and dry. Summer months can be hot and humid, with frequent afternoon thunderstorms. Spring and fall offer pleasant weather, but it's important to check for hurricane warnings during these seasons.

Getting around

Getting around West Palm Beach is easy with a car rental, rideshare services like Uber and Lyft, and the city's free trolley system. Visitors can also explore the city by bike or on foot, especially in downtown areas like Clematis Street and CityPlace. Parking can be limited in popular areas, so it's recommended to use public transportation or ride-sharing services.

Traveller tips

Don't forget to pack sunscreen and insect repellent, as the Florida sun can be strong and mosquitoes are common. Be sure to check the weather forecast before heading out for outdoor activities, as afternoon thunderstorms are common in the summer. Take advantage of happy hour specials at local restaurants and bars for discounted drinks and appetizers. Explore the city's farmers markets for fresh produce and unique gifts. Consider booking tours and activities in advance to secure your spot, especially during peak tourist seasons.
