Summer on the Intracoastal

Your Guide to Palm Beach's Finest Dining, Waterfront Events & On-the-Water Adventures This Season

West Palm Beach has always had the water… but this summer, it’s earned a dining scene and social calendar to match. Megayachts at Rybovich, the Intracoastal shimmering at golden hour, and a stretch of Flagler Drive that comes alive every weekend from June through September.

Worth Avenue Yachts has called this market home for years. Here’s what we recommend — the restaurants, events, and on-the-water experiences that define a Palm Beach summer done properly.

"Palm Beach isn't a place you visit in summer… it's a place you choose. The Intracoastal doesn't care what month it is — neither should you."

Waterfront Dining

Where to Dine This Season

70 Royal Poinciana Way, Palm Beach

Tutto Mare

Palm Beach’s first and only intracoastal waterfront restaurant — and it arrived with serious pedigree. The Tutto il Giorno team brought the spirit of Gianpaolo de Felice’s southern Italian upbringing to the reimagined Royal Poinciana Playhouse… branzino acqua pazza, fritto misto, and paccheri con frutti di mare, all under 12-foot oak-beamed vaulted ceilings designed by Gabby Karan de Felice.

Arrive for lunch. Stay for sunset on the deck. The Venetian Festival mural in the historic Celebrity Room alone is worth the table.

251 Sunrise Ave, Palm Beach

The Polo Room

Co-owned by the legendary Argentine polo icon Nacho Figueras, The Polo Room channels the glamour of the Wellington polo circuit into a Palm Beach dining room. The walls tell the story — vintage 1980s and ’90s photographs from polo photographer Ricardo “Snoopy” Motran, horsehead ice buckets at the bar, and a -22 Martini with frozen olives that does the talking.

The menu runs from raw bar and handcrafted empanadas through prime steaks and Lobster Frite. Continental, confident, and unmistakably Palm Beach.

North End · Flagler Drive, West Palm Beach

La Marina

Set against the backdrop of Safe Harbor Rybovich Marina — flanked by megayachts and open to the Intracoastal — La Marina brings coastal chic to the North End with 200 seats, covered outdoor dining, and a menu that draws from Mediterranean, Latin, and Asian coastal traditions.

Maine lobster spaghetti, whole grilled wild-caught prawns, and a full raw bar and sushi program. Come for the view of the megayachts at Rybovich… stay for the branzino and the signature cocktails at golden hour.

Peanut Island Cruising

The open secret of the Palm Beach summer.

Drop anchor, lower the swim platform, and let the afternoon handle itself. It’s what the water is for.
