Another one of our favorite restaurants is Seasons 52, centrally located off of Glades Road. This is a perfect choice for a date night or special event. The eatery is health conscious and seasonally fresh, so the menu is always changing with delicious options!
Right down the street on Glades Road, you’ll find the Town Center Mall shopping plaza with a large variety of dining and of course shopping options.

Family Activities, Beaches, and Parks
South Florida is famous for its beautiful beaches and waterfront property. Boca Raton is no exception! Here you’ll find plenty of picturesque beaches to choose from. Also, there are a lot of recreational parks for you and your family to enjoy. Red Reef Park is one of our personal favorites; it even has its own waterfront golf course! Most parks with beach access have covered picnic areas and bathrooms on site for your convenience, it makes taking little ones to the beach a breeze. Here you can find a complete list of parks with locations and hours of operation.
One great family activity that isn’t too far away from Boca Raton is Lion Country Safari. Located in Loxahatchee, it’s a short drive, but well worth it. There, you drive through a safari in your own vehicle and get to see many animals walking around freely. It’s a great opportunity to teach children about animals. At the end of the safari drive, there is a small amusement park and even a chance to feed giraffes. This is a great family trip that is sure to make everyone happy!
Golf and Tennis Clubs

There are even many children’s programs to get your little ones involved in the game. Here is a list of golf courses in the Boca Raton area, and here is a map of tennis courts.
