Historic Palm Beach Bike Pedal
Join us on a leisurely 7-mile bike ride around Old Palm Beach which promises to bring to life this buttoned-down resort enclave that first became famous as a giddy, 1920’s era playground. We are retracing the Old Lake Trail towards the northern tip of the island as we pass under a cooling canopy of native and exotic trees and manicured flora of every hue. Witness the architectural splendor of Addison Mizner’s Mediterranean-revival palaces set amid the backdrop of semi-tropical seclusion.

Three Little Towns by the Sea
Come with us on a journey celebrating a small corner of Florida’s riveting history. We are visiting the area of the Jupiter Inlet and its tributary waterways up to Hobe Sound that was once home to three little towns by the sea. Recount the collected chronicles of a region that has been at the crossroads of Florida history for over a thousand years. Our first stop is the Nature Conservancy’s Blowing Rocks Preserve, a great example of rare fully restored coastal strand noted for its performing geyser-like rocks that send plumes of water streaming upwards at high tide.
