Getting to Boca Raton
Boca Raton is conveniently located between Miami and Palm Beach, making it accessible from both Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL, approximately 30 miles south) and Palm Beach International Airport (PBI, approximately 25 miles north). Miami International Airport (MIA) is approximately 50 miles south. A rental car is the most practical option; Boca Raton is suburban in character and the polo venues are not served by public transport. The Brightline intercity rail service connects Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, and West Palm Beach, offering a car-free option for reaching the town centre.
Accommodation
Boca Raton has a good range of accommodation including luxury beach resorts along the ocean (the historic Boca Raton Resort & Club being a landmark property), chain hotels along US-1 and near the interstate, and holiday rentals in residential neighbourhoods. Accommodation in Boca Raton tends to be somewhat more affordable than in Palm Beach proper, making it a practical base for those attending polo matches across the county.
Weather During Season
November through April in Boca Raton brings the characteristic South Florida winter and spring climate: warm, sunny days (highs 22–28°C / 72–82°F), low humidity relative to summer, and occasional cool fronts. Late-season rains are rare but possible. The summer months (May–October) are hot, humid, and subject to afternoon thunderstorms — polo activity in the area is minimal during this period.
Local Tips
Boca Raton's polo community has a social and welcoming character, and visitors often find it easier to integrate into club life here than at the larger, more professionally dominated Wellington venues. The town itself offers excellent dining, beaches, and shopping along Mizner Park and the surrounding area.
