What is Worth Avenue?
Worth Avenue is Palm Beach's world-famous luxury shopping street, lined with designer boutiques, galleries and restaurants tucked into Mediterranean-style courtyards called vias. It is one of the most iconic shopping destinations in the United States and an easy drive north from Lake Worth Beach.
About Worth Avenue
Running from Lake Worth Lagoon to the ocean, Worth Avenue is about window-shopping as much as buying: palm-lined sidewalks, flower-filled courtyards and elegant architecture by Addison Mizner. Duck into the vias to discover hidden cafés, fountains and smaller shops.
Pair a visit with a walk to the beach at the east end of the avenue, or a drive along scenic South Ocean Boulevard back to Lake Worth Beach.
