About John D. MacArthur Beach

Palm Beach County's only state park preserves a rare undeveloped barrier island ecosystem between the Atlantic Ocean and Lake Worth Lagoon. The park features excellent snorkeling, kayaking through mangrove-lined channels, and nature trails where visitors can spot ospreys, manatees, and nesting sea turtles.
