Kicking back on the Florida coast
One of southeast Florida's palm beaches, Juno Beach is just an hour and a half north of Miami and an hour north of Fort Lauderdale. Sprawling along a barrier island, its palm-lined shores on Florida's Atlantic coast are home to beautiful beaches, nature reserves, and a charming coastal town. Settling into one of the Juno Beach vacation rentals will allow you to unwind and savor a classic Florida seaside vacation, complete with walks on the coast, hours of fishing on the pier, and a chance to see cute loggerhead turtles nesting on the sands.
Learn about nature at Juno Beach
If you're staying at your Juno Beach vacation rental with kids, don't miss a visit to the Loggerhead Marinelife Center. Here, you can learn about Florida's delicate coastal ecosystems and participate in the busy program of events. History buffs will enjoy making the trip a few minutes north, to the neighboring town of Jupiter Beach. It has a lighthouse dating back to the mid-19th century at the head of a beautiful inlet. Here, you can enjoy guided tours and a small but interesting museum that chronicles the area's history.
Artistic flair in Juno Beach
The serene sands and coastal inlets around Juno Beach have inspired many hundreds of artists, and the town brims with art galleries and studios. Every year, the town hosts Art Fest by the Sea, a springtime celebration of art under the Florida sunshine, where you can wander the stalls along the oceanfront promenade. Or, if you prefer your activities to be a little more strenuous, you will find plenty of water sports on offer: surf schools, windsurfing, kitesurfing, and deep sea fishing opportunities are all easily accessible from Juno Beach vacation rentals.
Winter sun in Juno Beach
You really can enjoy Juno Beach vacation rentals at any time throughout the year. The region is a fabulous winter sun destination, with temperatures even during the winter months rarely falling below 60, and frequently hovering around the 70s. In the summer months, the tropical heat is perfect for lazy beach days, with temperatures soaring into the 80s and 90s despite the cooling ocean breeze. In these warm months, you may also be lucky enough to experience the sight of loggerhead turtle hatchlings making their way down to the sea.
