Things to Do in Jupiter, Florida

Jupiter is more than the largest planet in the solar system; it is also a prime vacation spot located in Palm Beach County on the southern Atlantic coast of Florida. With over 50,000 residents, the town is a bustling metropolis that offers plenty to do for tourists booked into Jupiter vacation homes.

The Sports Connection

Jupiter is famed for being one of Florida's "beach towns," but it is also more than that. Both the Florida Marlins and the St. Louis Cardinals have spring training facilities here in Jupiter, and each spring baseball fans descend on Jupiter hoping for a glimpse of their favorite pitcher or outfielder. The Jupiter Hammerheads and the Palm Beach Cardinals, both of which are minor league teams that compete in the Florida State League, also train here each spring.

A completely different sporting activity can be found at the Palm Beach International Raceway, first built in the mid-1960s but renovated and remodeled in the last few years. The raceway currently hosts the ARCA Remax Series as well as several different NHRA and IHRA sportsman events.

The Jupiter Lighthouse

Tourists in search of American history will find it in Jupiter in the Jupiter Lighthouse, among other locations. This lighthouse was designed by George Meade, who later rose to fame as a Union general during the Civil War. The lighthouse was completed before the Civil War began, but is still standing today. A museum dedicated to interpreting the lighthouse is open every day except Mondays.
