Lantana is a small seaside village in Palm Beach County just minutes
from West Palm Beach. Preserved in Lantana is that Old Florida
small-town-fishing-village charm, and it is a popular winter
destination for a large number of Floridians and others. It is both
one of the oldest and smallest settlements in Palm Beach County, and
is a great place to go to relax. In general, I’d recommend it to
those who are looking to visit the Palm Beach region and want a
fairly quiet, relaxing town to use as their base for excursions into
other communities (Palm Beach and Delray Beach are both very close,
and there are great fishing charters that sail out of nearby Boynton
Beach). That being said, there are some very nice attractions in
Lantana, most notably, its fine beach.
Lantana’s beach offers quite a lot to the casual beach-goer. The
dunes surrounding the beach make for great hiking opportunities,
while the beach itself is quite nice, and features a playground for
the kids (or large creepy men). The beach also features an inshore
reef and restaurant, and so it is a perennial destination for SCUBA
divers, birdwatchers, and gluttons.
Lantana is a very nice little spot, and is the perfect base for
exploring Palm Beach County. Naturally, you’ll need some
transportation from Lantana to your vacation destinations, and as
such, you should consider Mirage Limo. Mirage serves all of Palm
Beach County, and can take you from where you are staying in Lantana
to all of Palm Beach’s famous destinations – from the upscale shops
and restaurants of Palm Beach to the Loxahatchee National Wildlife
Refuge. Lantana is the perfect alternative place to stay for people
who want to escape the crowds and settle into Old Florida life.
