Peanut Island in West Palm Beach

Peanut Island

Peanut Island is a beautiful 80-acre island located in the Intracoastal Waterway in West Palm Beach, Florida. The island is a great location for swimming, snorkeling, and boating because of its stunning beaches and clear blue waters. It was originally created in 1918 as a result of dredging to build the nearby Port of Palm Beach, and it was later used as a secret emergency bunker for President John F. Kennedy during the Cold War. Visitors to Peanut Island can explore the bunker, as well as visit the on-site museum which features exhibits on the history of the island and its role during the Cold War.
