"This one-time grandparent visitation hub has become the small city of choice for many young professionals who tire of Miami’s frenetic pace. This subdued beach town still has big city amenities, with restaurants like Dada and Deck 84 drawing people from Miami for dinner ventures into Palm Beach County. Delray is also home to one of the best beach bars in the state at Boston’s, where, if you can tolerate the transplanted Patriots fans, you’ll find a fantastic sports bar too. The beach here is never crowded and still maintains much of the charm it had before the city next to it grew up. And if you’re in town on St. Patrick’s Day, Delray has the best parade in the state." - MATADOR_NETWORK
