Jupiter Things To Do # 5

The town of Jupiter, Fla., lies north of West Palm Beach and boasts an elaborate selection of golf courses, parks and beach-front activities. An important location for guiding ships to land since the 16th century, Jupiter remains famous for its waters—the Loxahatchee River and the Intracoastal Waterway.

Today’s popular activities include biking along miles of beaches, renting a boat for fishing, touring Coral Cave in a paddleboat and watching turtles at Loggerhead Marinelife Center. Popular landmarks include museums like Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse—one of the Atlantic Coast’s oldest lighthouses—and the 100-year-old DuBois Pioneer Home, which is located on an ancient Indian burial ground.

During the baseball season, locals enjoy stopping by the Roger Dean Stadium, which hosts the spring training for Major League Baseball teams: Florida Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals.
