The short answer

Jupiter is the laid-back northern end of the county: a climbable red lighthouse, dog-friendly beaches, riverfront seafood shacks and the Loxahatchee River for paddling. It rewards the 40-minute drive from Boca.

Highlights

  • Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse
  • Jupiter Dog Beach
  • Riverwalk and Harbourside Place
  • Blowing Rocks Preserve
  • Loxahatchee River kayaking
