Boynton Beach, Coastal city in Palm Beach County, Florida, United States
Boynton Beach stretches along the Intracoastal Waterway, featuring residential neighborhoods, commercial districts, and multiple parks across its 16 square miles of land.
Nathan Smith Boynton, a Civil War major from Michigan, established the area in 1895 by constructing the Boynton Hotel, which operated until 1925.
The Schoolhouse Children's Museum and Learning Center preserves local heritage through exhibits and educational programs in a 1913 schoolhouse building.
The city maintains a Tri-Rail station connecting residents to West Palm Beach and Miami, with additional public transportation provided by PalmTran bus services.
Despite its name, Boynton Beach has no direct beach access, as the oceanfront portion separated in 1931 to become the municipality of Ocean Ridge.
