Curator’s statement
Jupiter is home to some of the most stunning views in all of Florida. Sister city to Palm Beach, it shares some of the luxurious appeal while also maintaining a more laid-back feel. You haven't experienced serene until you've gone paddleboarding on the intracoastal overlooking the town's famous lighthouse. Enjoy exquisite cuisine right on the water that has been caught the very same day.

Things to do in Jupiter, Florida
Jupiter's calling card is its many luxurious beaches:
Families will be drawn to the children's lagoon area at Dubois Park, pet owners will find their furry friends welcomed at Jupiter's Dog Beach, and those looking to host an event or spend the whole day by the water will enjoy the picnic tables and grills at Carlin Park.
If laying in the sand isn't your style, you can still get your fill of Jupiter's serene waters with PonTiki Boat Cruises or paddle board and kayak rentals at Blueline Surf & Paddle.
Harbourside Place is an outdoor shopping mall with a riverwalk and small amphitheater, and is perfect for a date night. For more high-end shopping, check out the Gardens Mall.
A trip to Jupiter isn't complete without a stop at Loggerhead Marinelife Center. It's a rehabilitation center for turtles and if you happen to stop by at the right time, you could even see the release of a rehabilitated turtle back into the ocean. For more animal interactions, plan a trip to Busch Wildlife Sanctuary, a nonprofit nature center.
Places to eat & drink in Jupiter, Florida
Many of Jupiter's restaurants are situated right on the water, making for incredible views and ambience. But what's even more impressive is the quality of the food.
Hog Snappers is a laid-back sushi restaurant with some of the best rolls in the whole town. But don't go without trying the sweet potato fries with their house remoulade sauce.
My favorite meal in all of Jupiter is the sweet potato-crusted fish at Little Moir's Food Shack. Their menu changes slightly everyday based on what was freshly caught that morning.
If a beachy atmosphere is what you want, head over to Guanabanas. The food and service doesn't compare to these other spots, but you can't beat the view and live music. Even Justin Bieber has dined here!
Want to take a swim while waiting for your food? Enjoy a meal at Blue Pointe Bar & Grill where you can take a dip in their pool, or sit at a table overlooking the intracoastal.
If you find yourself in Jupiter Farms, do yourself a favor and order the Kicked Up Mac & Cheese at Taylor Farmhouse Cafe. You won't regret it.
