West Palm Beach, FL

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.
