Riviera Beach

Riviera Beach has functioned as an Atlantic-coast port community in Palm Beach County since the early 20th century. The city occupies the western shore of Lake Worth Lagoon, part of the Intracoastal Waterway, while Lake Worth Inlet opens its waters to the Atlantic Ocean. The Port of Palm Beach sits beside the inlet, linking this compact city to Caribbean shipping routes and giving its waterfront a working maritime character. Across the channel, Peanut Island is known for the Cold War-era bunker built for President John F. Kennedy. Phil Foster Park and the Blue Heron Bridge draw swimmers and divers to the lagoon.

Florida occupies a low-lying peninsula in the southeastern United States, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Gulf of Mexico to the west. Lake Okeechobee lies near its centre, and water from this basin historically flowed south through the Everglades, a vast subtropical wetland protected in part by Everglades National Park. The Florida Keys extend southwest from the mainland, while long sandy coasts and inland freshwater systems shape everyday life across the state. St. Augustine, founded by Spain in 1565, is widely recognised as the oldest continuously inhabited European-established settlement in the United States.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
