Possible quick road trip to Palm Beach, Florida area

I may be taking a long weekend road trip down to the Palm Beach area the weekend of November 13-15/16 and wondered if there are any members in that area who might be able to give me a few suggestions on easily accessible photo ops that I can reach on a limited time basis. I don't know where in the area I will be yet so all ideas are on the table at this point. As things progress I can refine my search somewhat.

Just about everywhere. It's a small place.

Henry Flagler Museum, Drive by Trump's ex-palace? Mounts Botanical Garden if you like gardens.

Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge in Boynton Beach is a favorite of photographers in South Florida. Check out the website. Major site for nesting birds, herons, alligators, etc.
Enjoy !

There's also the Morikami Museum and Gardens in Boca Raton.
However, if you've only got a weekend, pick one or two places and then get to the beach.

Wakodahatchee, Boynton Beach on Jog Road, free with parking. Also Green Cay, Hagen Ranch Road, also free with parking. Both are great for birds. Also try the Lake Worth Pier, have lunch at Bennys on the pier, great fish and chips, and get some beach and ocean shots. Be sure to either have dollars or credit card there for the parking meters.

Drive through the Downtown, and beaches area, you will have plenty to shoot. If you are more into nature, there are plenty of wetland parks in the area, just do an internet search. Don't live there but do spend time in the area, sorry that I can't give you names of the parks, but I know of a couple in the Loxahatchee area that are on Northlake Blvd just west of the Beeline (Hwy 710)

Thank you to everyone who has responded with ideas. I don't know if the trip will materialize but if it does I have plenty of ideas on where to go. The beach is definitely a priority.
