Just over the bridge is the resort island of Palm Beach with bike trails taking you to pristine beaches, the mansions of the very rich and famous and the ultimate in exclusive shopping on Worth Avenue. 
The MacArthur Beach State Park, on Singer Island, or a visit to the Everglades at Riverbend Park are short drives away.
