Interesting Facts About Jupiter, FL


Another beautiful day in sunny Jupiter, Florida, but what to do? Located conveniently near Florida's Gold Coast, Jupiter is a wealth of hidden gems; you just need to know where to look.

Here are a few fun facts about Jupiter that help make this coastal community such a great place to live.

Lighting the Way Home

Did you know that located on the northern bank of the Loxahatchee River sits Lighthouse Park, home to the most notable landmark in the city, the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse? This historic spot has been a Jupiter staple since the late 1800's when the land was occupied by its settlers.

The lighthouse has a storied history than begins during the Civil War when the inlet was used to bring supplies to the Confederacy. Today, a trip to the lighthouse is a great way to soak in some local Jupiter history while soaking in some sun. The best place to view the lighthouse is at DuBois Park which is located on the other side of Jupiter Sound, where fishing is allowed so bring your gear and prepare your apartment for a nice home cooked meal!

Batter Up!

Did you know that Jupiter is home away from home for MLB teams the Florida Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals? Both teams have their spring training facilities in Jupiter and exhibition games are often open to the public so you can get a sneak peak of the season ahead. Also based in Jupiter are the Minor League Baseball affiliates, the Jupiter Hammerheads and Palm Beach Cardinals. Minor league games are a great outing for the entire family and a great way to support your local community so pack up the car and don't forget your sunscreen!

For the Dogs

Did you know that Jupiter is home to one of the only dog friendly beaches in the state of Florida? No need to leave your best friend in your apartment while you enjoy the sun! Dogs are allowed on non-guarded beaches from Jupiter to Juno Beach, but make sure you adhere to the rules which include: keeping your pet on a leash or in voice command at all times, cleaning up after your dog, making sure to use the special dog kiosks that provide plastic bags for your convenience and always keep an eye on your dog to make sure they are not impeding on other beach guests.

Jupiter is a great place to spend a day enjoying the Atlantic whether it's taking in some history, reeling in the catch of the day or simply taking a dip in the crystal waters, it just depends on what you're in the mood for!
