  • Palm Beach and West Palm Beach Attractions
    09_595369_ch05.qxd 10/24/05 12:11 PM Page 285 PART FIVE PALM BEACH COUNTY WELCOME to PALM BEACH TRUMP AND THE BREAKERS, TRUMPETS AT the Philharmonic, and breaking the bank are people and things associated with mostly rar- efied, sometimes vilified, but always fascinating Palm Beach. Palm Beach County is larger than Delaware, but most visitors are aware only of the opulent “Gold Coast,” from Palm Beach to Boca Raton. But there are 37 other municipalities and unincorporated areas, and the county includes 47 miles of beaches on the east, and Lake Okeechobee and the Everglades on the west. Delray Beach, between Boca and Palm Beach, has become a lively, desirable place to play and live. West Palm Beach is becoming a shop- ping and entertainment destination in itself, far less stuffy than its rich neighbor across Lake Worth. And west of the coast, past the suburban communities, are citrus groves, ranches, and wildlife refuges. A BRIEF HISTORY THE COUNTY’S EARLIEST KNOWN RESIDENTS were Native Ameri- cans, but the region was claimed for Spain in 1513. The nascent United States purchased the territory of Florida three centuries later. The Seminole Indian tribe’s famous resistance to forced relocation promptedCOPYRIGHTED three wars. The third, fought MATERIAL between 1835 and 1842, ended Indian control of the area. The county’s oldest nonnative set- tlement, Jupiter, was founded as a wartime fort in 1836. The Jupiter Lighthouse began operating in 1860 and continues to the present. In the 1890s, visionary Henry Flagler, a founding partner of Stan- dard Oil, built the Florida East Coast Railway system from Jacksonville to Key West to open the state as a winter paradise.

Beginning in the 1920s, teams began the first wave of the journey south to the Sunshine State, to become the state’s first sports tourism destination. Now in the 2020s, the state of Florida, and its local host communities, continue to set the benchmark for Spring Training Baseball. With a combined effort between Major League Baseball, the 15 teams holding their Spring Training in Florida and the 12 Florida host communities, the 2021 Florida Grapefruit League season will continue this storied tradition. We look forward to hosting teams from across our nation at our top-notch facilities for another successful season.
