Tips For A Fun-Filled Day Out On The Boca Raton Beaches

By Jony Mozen


The thing that draws tourists to this particular patch of the Sunshine State's east coast is the two-mile stretch of pristine beach sand. Boca Raton is Florida's Malibu for lavish spenders, combining upscale shopping with stylish homes offering expansive oceanfront views. The dunes stretch endlessly in both directions, with nothing ahead except the horizon, the sea birds and the shimmering waters of the Atlantic.

It's called Boca, and it's just a 40-mile hop from Miami. Those arriving by plane are just 20 minutes away at the airports on either side in Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale. It's the nearest getaway from these big cities where people can kick back and enjoy the serene beauty with no crowds or buildings, and snooze on the beaches while soaking in the sun.

There's no better place on the east coast for a nice and safe family vacation or even just a day out on the beach with the kids. The city has a family-friendly reputation as one of the safest and cleanest communities to live in and work in the U. S. There are lifeguards keeping an eye on things at the beaches from morning to evening all year round, which is a good thing because the blue skies and year-round sunshine make it hard for people to stay away from the beaches.

There are three parks run by the city right by the beach. It makes a day trip here much more enjoyable since visitors can combine beach fun with picnics and other family activities and games. Everything from picnic tables to grills, restrooms and playgrounds are available right alongside the beaches. The most inviting one is Red Reef, where the artificial reef a few feet from shore makes it safe for little kids to swim and learn to snorkel.

Apart from the one-mile beach and lovely waters, another attraction at the 39-acre Red Reef Park is the Gumbo Limbo Nature Center. It's a fascinating place for children and families, offering a butterfly garden and a chance to see all kinds of native species including brown pelicans and manatees. Their aquarium with sharks and sea turtles packs in huge crowds for the live feedings.

Both Red Reef and South Beach parks also have a designated area for surfers. The county-managed South Inlet Park Beach is the best choice for sports and recreational activities. Apart from pier fishing, it offers facilities for volleyball, jet skiing, windsurfing, kayaking, sailboarding and canoeing, among other things.

If that's not enough, hop over to the Delray Municipal Beach. It's ideal for a fun-filled day of beachfront recreation and games. Visitors here can surf, swim, snorkel, sail and go windsurfing. There are separate areas for everything from kite flying to paddleball and Frisbees.

People who think of golf as their religion will bump into heaven at the oceanfront golf course. Art lovers will similarly be enthralled by the offerings of the Museum of Art, and nature enthusiasts will start thinking of the Daggerwing Nature Center as their new home. Families may also want to pencil in some time for Sugar Sand Park with its children's museum, science emporium and carousel.
