Where to hang out beyond a table
A meal here pairs easily with time outside:
- The beach. Palm Beach County's Juno Beach Park, open sunrise to sunset, has a guarded swimming area, parking, restrooms and showers. Check the county's beach conditions before swimming.
- The pier. The Juno Beach Pier isn't free: Loggerhead Marinelife Center, which manages it, lists a spectator fee and a separate fishing fee, and its hours change by season. Refurbishment began on June 1, 2026, so check the pier page for current hours and closures.
- Loggerhead Marinelife Center, across U.S. 1 from Plaza La Mer, for a visit before or after gelato. Check the Center's site for current hours and programs.
- Pelican Lake at the Town Center, which has a lakeside path and a patio with picnic tables.
