Perhaps Highland Beach’s quiet demeanor and unspoiled beaches are so many loggerhead turtles chose to settle their nests on its white sand coastline. Truly, the topography is a perfect blend of natural beauty and elegant estates.
Officially incorporated in 1949, Highland Beach was originally inhabited by Native Americans -- most likely the Tequesta Indian tribe. Pirates and other explorers spent time on the land as well, but the town attributes much of its development, as well as its colorful flora and fuana, to Japanese Settlers. In the early 1900s, Japanese settlers called the area Yamato and successfully cultivated pineapples and vegetables. Pineapple farm owner and businessman George Morikami eventually donated part of the land in Delray Beach for the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens. Here, residents and visitors enjoy learning about South Florida’s connection to Japan; strolling through the unique gardens which showcase Japan’s flora and fauna designs; and attending annual events such as the Hatsume Fair, Lantern Festival, and Oshogatsu Celebration.
With numerous restaurants, shopping malls, and entertainment venues in nearby Boca Raton and Delray Beach, Highland beach homeowners are never short on activities. Popular attractions in Boca Raton include the Children’s Science Explorium, Sugar Sands Park, Gumbo Limbo Nature Center, Mizner Park, and the Boca Raton Museum of Art. In Delray Beach, the vibrant nightlife along and around Atlantic Avenue does not disappoint. Local favorites include Johnnie Brown’s, Park Tavern, The Office, Bull Bar, 3rd and 3rd, Honey, and Salt 7. Art and antique aficionados frequent galleries such as Ford Fine Art, Avalon, Blue Gallery, Ellen Miller Studio, Addison Gallery, Black Pearl Fine Art, and Le Garage.
The exclusive real estate and close proximity to premier shopping, fine dining, and entertainment venues makes Highland Beach the perfect Palm Beach County address.
