The Gold Coast

A March 2002 trip to Delray Beach by Hammer54

Quote: The Gold Coast of Florida is unlike the rest of the state. Its a mixture of wealth, millon dollar beach front homes, a homogenous mix of old and new, shopping from dollar stores to Beverly Hills type shops, and eating every food imaginable.

The Gold Coast Best of IgoUgo

Overview

Quote:
One of the best moments of my time in Del Rey is going to Bostons on the Beach to eat. They have a wonderful upper level deck where you can see A1A, and the beach while you relax to a wonderful portion of Stone Crab, or eat breakfast and watch the beach wake up.

Quick Tips:

Best Way To Get Around:

The best way to get around is walking when you are in any of the towns or beach areas. But a car is a must so you can cruise along A1A and see all the sights. Beachfront cafes and multi millon dollar homes from Del Rey to West Palm. Its one of the most luxurious drives in the USA.

Boston's on the Beach & Upperdeck Best of IgoUgo

Restaurant | "Boston's Upper Deck"

Quote:
Dining at Boston's is one of the greatest experiences in Del Rey. You sit on the upper deck, watching A1A, the beach, the waves, the men and women in all sorts of attire, and the world go by below you. Whether you're eating local stone crab or breakfast, it's one of the best dining experiences you will ever enjoy.

Sometime in March or early April, Del Rey Beach has their annual Arts Festival. There you will find local artisans showing their wares of local art and pottery, glass, etc. It's a fun day right on the intercoastal.
