My photography needs stimulation. Can you recommend sites with visual interest in the Boca area?
I have been to the wetlands many times…all good but looking for other places.
Suggestions welcomed.

If you like wildlife about 45 minutes north is Wakodahatchee and Green Cay and Loxahatchee Federal Preserve. Look the information up on Google.

I am going to suggest places within an hour drive:
Butterfly World, Morikami, Clematis St, Downtown Delray, Mizner area, Hillsboro Lighthouse, Jupiter Lighthouse, PBC Zoo, Miami Zoo, South Beach, Lion Country Safari, Deering Estate (at sunrise), Bonnet House, Vizcaya, Little Havana, Wynwood, Las Olas and Miami Skyline from Rickenbacker causeway.

I probably forgot a bunch, too.

In addition to bkwaterk’s there’s Gumbo Limbo Nature Center in Boca; sea turtle rescue and butterflies, and take a nice cruise south on the Miss Delray in the park at Atlantic Avenue & the Intracoastal. There’s a northern cruise to Manalapan from there but I never went on it. Many restaurants on the Intracoastal offer great views and beautiful scenery.

If interested in sports photography, try the Everett Tennis Academy — often run into Chrissie there. Lots of good action and some of the players may well want some of your shots.

I liked Butterfly World. Well worth a visit if you haven't been there.
