Jupiter
The small town of Jupiter—which protrudes further into the Atlantic Ocean than any other point in Florida--is rich in history, with earliest known records of the Jupiter Inlet dating back to 1565. When the Spanish first came to this area, they found the Jega Indians living along the banks of the inlet and river. The Indians called themselves the Jobe, so the Spanish explorers named the river running into the inlet the Jobe River, after the native tribe. Later, when English settlers found the area around 1763, the name Jobe was so similar to that of mythological god Jove, or Jupiter, that they christened the area Jupiter.

It was during the 1800s that Jupiter's most identifiable landmark, the Jupiter Lighthouse, was built. The Lighthouse stands 105 feet tall atop a 46 ft. hill on the north shore of the Jupiter Inlet. The land that is now Lighthouse Park was once a part of Fort Jupiter, a military installation that was formed during the Seminole Indian Wars. Across the inlet, myriad restaurants and marinas offer today’s residents a place to gaze upon this historic location.

Jupiter remains famous for its beautiful beaches (including a stretch that is dog-friendly), the Loxahatchee River, and Intracoastal Waterway. The town enjoys a vibrant cultural life as the home of the Florida History Center & Museum, and several annual arts and entertainment festivals. Town and county parks also provide recreational facilities for team sports like baseball, basketball and soccer, tennis court, an aquatic center and access ramps into the Intracoastal Waterway. Over 100 restaurants offer everything from seafood to ethnic food, at every conceivable price point, and the main shopping areas along Donald Ross Road, Indiantown Road and the master-planned community of Abacoa (adjacent to a Spring Training stadium) continue to grow and expand their offerings to stylish residents both part- and full-time.
