City overview

West Palm Beach and the island of Palm Beach sit side by side across the Lake Worth Lagoon, pairing downtown West Palm's museums, waterfront and performing-arts venues with Palm Beach's Worth Avenue, Flagler Museum and wide Atlantic beaches. Jewish life is spread across both: two Chabad houses, the Modern Orthodox Palm Beach Synagogue and New Synagogue on the island, and the long-established Aitz Chaim opposite Century Village. Kosher dining is limited but growing, anchored by two ORB-certified glatt meat restaurants, so plan Shabbos meals ahead.
