Discover The Palm Beaches Launches Help Desk for Essential Lodgers, Medical Personnel and First Responders

$7.7 billion. Once recognized as a tropical escape for elite travelers in the late 1800s, America’s First Resort Destination® is making its resurgence as The Best Way To Experience Florida®, welcoming a record-breaking 8.22 million people in 2019.
