Yacht migration back to the north

Here in South Florida, we have seasonal residents of all types.  Some stay in 2 bedroom, oceanfront condos where they can pass the time on the beach.  Others have country club homes where they can play golf daily, lunch with friends and shop or dine in Palm Beach Gardens later.  Still others bring down mega-yachts for the season.  Jupiter, Boca Raton and Ft. Lauderdale are major destinations for these yachts.  When they come to Jupiter they often winter at marinas like Admirals Cove, Jupiter's premier waterfront community.

But now that the "season" is officially over and the temperatures are started to climb again, it's time for the migration back to the north for the summer.  The Intracoastal Waterway is a great place to see yachts like this one making their way back up the coast to Newport, Long Island or Cape Cod.

Yacht near Jupiter

So now those of us who call Jupiter, Juno Beach and Palm Beach Gardens our year round home turn our attention to the summer sports like golf, snorkeling at places like Coral Cove or pass the time cooling off in the lagoon at Dubois Park or heading over to the beaches at dawn or dusk to try some snook fishing.

Snook can grow to 35 pounds and can be caught right from the beach.

Think this sounds like a great place to live?  It is!  Head over to my website at Coastal Florida Real Estate where you can see all homes for sale in this area.  No other site, not Realtor.com, Trulia or Zillow, have any better, different or more current data.  And none of those other sites have a resident agent who has lived here 22 years and grew up in South Florida.  If you would like to speak with me directly my number is 561-762-4073.

Manatee in Dubois Park, Jupiter Florida

Jupiter is a great place to live.  Just ask the manatees.  We see them here all time but yesterday I was at Dubois Park for a public dedication and found this guy lazily lying on the bottom while fish cleaned the barnacles and other crud off his skin.

Palm Beach Gardens waterfront home

Palm Beach Gardens homes are typically known for the prestigious golf courses that surround them.  When you think of Palm Beach Gardens real estate you think of communities like BallenIsles, Old Palm, PGA National and Mirasol Country Club but on the east side of the Gardens is an older section along the waterfront.

The waterfront homes are in communities like Maheu Estates and Snug Harbor and line the small, finger canals that come off the Intracoastal or they face directly on the ICW.  These homes were built in the 1970's so they exhibit typical Florida ranch style characteristics although most have been upgraded.  Take this short video tour of the area.  Then, if you want to see all  Palm Beach Gardens homes for sale you can visit me on the web at Coastal Florida Real Estate.  Every house listed for sale is there in real time along with all the pictures.

Tiger back on top again

Tiger Woods is back on top, again.  The Jupiter Island resident claimed a multi-stroke victory in Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill tournament yesterday in Orlando.

Some time back I published this video on his yacht, "Privacy" which was docked in North Palm Beach across from the yacht of Jack Nicklaus.  Interesting that two of the top professional golfers of all time should have their yachts so close.

I thought I would put it on the web again so take a look and send along to your friends.

Riverbend Park full moon bike rides

Jupiter Farms is home to Riverbend Park. Here, the headwaters of the Loxahatchee River are located and  the 750 acres are home to a resident population of deer and turkeys.  Since the park is big, seeing it on a bicycle is a great idea.  And seeing it by bike on a full moon night is even better.

The park hosts monthly full moon rides. You can call the park to reserve a spot, or two, or three.  Once there you can ride in a small group with a guide along shell rock paths that shine in the moonlight.

The bike trails are very easy to follow by the full moon although your own source of light is recommended.  Children are required to wear helments.  You can ride with a group which has a leader or set off by yourself.  The Park also provides a bonfire at the end.  

Is Jupiter a great place to live?  You bet it is!  If you think you might like to know more you can see my Riverbend Park videos on my You Tube Channel and I post the latest on the Jupiter and Tequesta real estate market on my website Coastal Florida Real Estate.  Every home listed for sale in this area is available in real time along with every picture.  No other site has any more or more current information.  Enjoy then send to your friends!
