4. Best Fireworks Show from the Boat: 4th on Flagler
July 4, 2024, 6-10p, 100 N. Clematis Street, West Palm Beach, FL 33401
Growing up in South Florida, one of my favorite memories as a kid was watching the fireworks over the water! If you have access to a boat and want to anchor off of West Palm Beach or hang in the Intracoastal north or south of downtown, you will have an amazing view of the 4th on Flagler fireworks show. And, if you don't have a boat, but find yourself downtown,
4th on Flagler is one of South Florida's largest free Independence Day celebrations. They will have live music on 3 stages, a Military Honor ceremony, and plenty of activities, entertainment, and food.

No matter how you choose to celebrate the 4th of July, make sure it's safe and fun! Whether you're enjoying one of these fireworks shows, hosting your own BBQ, or taking part in other festive activities, please take precautions to ensure a safe and enjoyable day. From practicing proper firework safety to supervising children around water, being mindful of safety measures will help everyone have a blast while celebrating Independence Day.
