Visit Palm Beach Visitor Information & Adventure Center

138 S. Flagler Drive · West Palm Beach, FL

Why you should go…

Explore Palm Beach is a visitor guide magazine distributed in resorts and hotels across Palm Beach County, Florida, with no independent public office of its own. It is profiled here through Visit Palm Beach's Visitor Information & Adventure Center, known as The Hut, on the West Palm Beach waterfront, which serves as the area's official walk-in visitor center. Staff there help plan trips and book catamaran cruises, kayak and paddleboard rentals, and other tours, and the center doubles as a retail shop for beachwear, gifts, and souvenirs.

Good to know

General sightseeing guidance

Habits that pay off across this whole category, not rules for this one venue. Always check the official site for the specifics.

  • The forecast is part of the ticket

    Haze, low cloud, and rain flatten a view. Clear-day visits are worth rearranging your plans for.

  • Golden hour sells out first

    Sunset slots at observation decks and cruises are the first to go, so book those further ahead.

  • Dress a layer warmer

    It is always breezier up high and out on the water than it feels at street level.

  • Timed entry is common

    Plenty of landmarks release tickets in windows rather than at the door, so check before you walk over.
