These days, if you can’t Instagram it, you shouldn’t do it. Our meals are about getting the most photogenic dish, our vacations revolve around going to the trendiest location.
We live in a world made for the ‘gram and Palm Beach County is no exception. Here are some of the best places to snap the perfect pic and up your feed:
Best Scenic Instagram: Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse and Museum
A Palm Beach staple, the Jupiter Lighthouse makes for a stunning landscape shot. With clear blue waters and a lighthouse in the background, your followers will believe it when you say you live in paradise.
Best Dessert Instagram: Proper Ice Cream
You can have a pic of your ice cream and eat it too! Delray’s newest sweet shop features unique flavors like Blueberry Muffin and Glazed Donut served in a variety of colorful cones (including the very Instagrammable black vanilla).

Best Trendy Instagram: Via Encantada
Worth Avenue is the perfect spot for a glamorous Instagram, but the Ave’s true treasures are hidden in its vias, specifically Via Encantada. Take a picture with either the pale blue or hot pink cascading staircase, or with the giant pink iron rose (the most noteworthy part of the via). Take a picture at this spot, and your Instagram will be anything but basic.

Best Beach Instagram: Lake Worth Beach
Florida is known for its grandiose beaches, but the most captivating is Lake Worth Beach. Whether you want a picture in the sand or a picture of a beautiful sunset, Lake Worth Beach provides the perfect landscape for a chic vacation picture. Don’t miss out on the Lake Worth pier, where you can get a breathtaking photo as the waves crash against the pier’s pillings.

Best Sunday Brunch Instagram: Sundy House
Brunch and Instagram go together like Chicken and Waffles (a top feature on Sundy House’s brunch menu, by the way). Sundy House is not only a top Delray brunch spot because of its delectable menu, but its hometown charm, complete with hanging string lights, make it the perfect spot to take a post-feast Instagram.
106 S. Swinton Ave., Delray Beach
Best Artsy Instagram: Northwood Village
Live out your hipster fantasy at Northwood. From bohemian coffee shops to unique art exhibits, the West Palm Beach neighborhood is the coolest place to be seen. Walk around, enjoy the art, and don’t forget to take a picture with the blue eye wall, Northwood’s most iconic photo spot.
Best Nature Instagram: Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens
There is no place more peaceful than Delray’s Japanese Garden. While you’re learning about the beauty of Japanese culture, take some pictures of the angelic scenery, perfect for a great landscape picture.

Best Night Life Instagram: Atlantic Avenue
What’s a night out without a picture to remember it by? It’s no secret that Atlantic Avenue is the place to be for a fun night out, but it is also a great place to snap a cute picture. Atlantic Avenue is home to some of the trendiest bars, including Buddha Sky Bar, one of Palm Beach County’s best rooftop bars.
Best Modern Instagram: EmKo
Whether you’re dining on mushroom toast or enjoying the avant-garde sculptures, you’re sure to take at least one picture (probably a lot more) worthy for Instagram. EmKo provides an opportunity for new artists to show their work, and an opportunity for the social media artists to take a trendy picture in an innovative landscape.
2119 S. Dixie Highway, West Palm Beach
Best Playful Instagram: Sugar Sand Park
If you thought Sugar Sand Park was just for kids, you thought wrong. The brightly lit carousel and sky-high jungle gym make for a cute, fun, youthful Instagram. Take a playful picture at the butterfly wall and spread your wings.
Best Food Instagram: Grandview Public Market
Number one rule of Instagram: the camera eats first, and your phone will be full of food pictures from just one trip to Grandview Public Market. Not only is the food photogenic, but the artsy scenery completes the photo. The best dishes for a good food picture: the All Day Breakfast Sandwich from Grace’s Fine Foods, Ramen Tonkotsu from Ramen Lab Eatery or Thai rolled ice cream from Crema.
