Singer Island isn’t just a postcode — it’s a place that rewards people who take the time to explore it properly. Most guests arrive expecting a beach trip. A few days in, they realise they’ve barely scratched the surface.
Here’s what we’d actually point a friend towards.
The Beach — 5 min walk
Singer Island Beach is the obvious starting point, and it earns its reputation. Wide, uncrowded by Florida standards, and backed by a low-rise skyline that hasn’t been overdeveloped. Go early for a walk, mid-morning for a swim, late afternoon for the light.
Sailfish Marina — 10 min walk
The marina sits at the southern tip of the island where it meets the Lake Worth Inlet. Waterfront restaurant, sport fishing charters heading out before dawn, a rotating cast of liveaboard boats. It feels genuinely lived-in in a way that most tourist spots don’t. Worth a wander any time of day.
Blue Heron Bridge — 5 min drive
One of the most celebrated shore-dive sites in the world is practically on your doorstep. Mask and fins only — the reef is shallow, calm and extraordinary. Seahorses, frogfish, octopus, nudibranchs in colours that shouldn’t exist. Time it around high slack tide for the best conditions.
John D. MacArthur Beach State Park — 5 min drive
325 acres of untouched subtropical coastline at the northern end of Singer Island. $3 entry, no crowds, a tidal estuary and a mile of Atlantic beach with snorkelling just offshore. Get there early.
Peanut Island — 10 min by water taxi
A small island in the Lake Worth Lagoon that locals don’t advertise too loudly. There’s a reef, a Cold War nuclear bunker (genuinely), camping spots and mangrove trails. Water taxis run from Riviera Beach Municipal Marina.
Restaurants and Bars — 2 min walk
Downtown Singer Island has a walkable strip of casual restaurants and bars. Sailfish Marina Restaurant handles the fresh catch. Guanabanas, twenty minutes north in Jupiter, is the destination evening out — open-air, live music, tiki bar on the water.
