Palm Beach, FL Photos

Palm Beach & West Palm Beach sit across the Intercoastal Waterway from each other. Through the efforts of Henry Flagler & his Breakers Palm Beach hotel, Palm Beach became a meeting spot for America's wealthy in the early 20th century. Flagler's own home called Whitehall is now a museum.
