Delray Beach is famous for its lively main street, inviting beach weather, beautiful scenery, a thriving arts scene, and interesting culture that stretches back centuries. Nestled amongst better-known areas like the Palm Beaches and Boca Raton, Delray Beach is a hidden gem with fewer crowds, lower price tags, and no shortage of fun things to see and do!

Many of the city’s best eateries are located along the promenade or within the downtown core. Be sure to check out top-rated local spots City Oyster and Sushi Bar, Cafe Luna Rosa, Cabana, Dada, Patio Delray, and Cut 432.

Keeping with its laid-back charm, Delray Beach does not have any indoor or outdoor shopping malls. Delray Marketplace is an assortment of boutiques, beauty stores, grocers, and restaurants. There are; however, many malls and outlets in nearby communities like Boca Raton and Palm Beach. The Winter Green Market is an open-air, weekly market in downtown Delray, with over 65 vendors selling farm-to-table produce, fruits and juices, dairy products, baked goods, and more, along with live entertainment.

The City of Delray Beach takes its beaches seriously. Delray Municipal Beach features chair and cabana rentals, white-sand shores, and warm crystal-clear waters.
