Palm Beach County stretches from Boca Raton in the south up to Jupiter in the north, and it is one of the deepest pickleball markets in Florida. Palm Beach Gardens opened Lilac Park with 24 lighted courts, Boca Raton added 18 covered courts at Patch Reef Park, and free county parks fill in dozens more. Whether you want a big organized complex, a covered court that beats the summer sun, or a free morning game near the beach, here is where to play across the county.
