Luxury Real Estate in Singer Island, FL
Barrier-island oceanfront north of Palm Beach — towers, Ritz Residences, and Palm Beach Shores
Living & Buying in Singer Island
Singer Island is the barrier island just north of the Lake Worth Inlet. Buyers search the island name for oceanfront towers and for Palm Beach Shores — not for the Town of Palm Beach and not for mainland Riviera Beach west of the Intracoastal.
The luxury product is mostly named condominium buildings along North Ocean Drive, plus the small incorporated town of Palm Beach Shores at the south end. MLS city is often Riviera Beach or Palm Beach Shores; the marketing name is Singer Island.
James Simpson with Illustrated Properties helps compare Singer Island towers and Palm Beach Shores with Jupiter, Palm Beach Island, and West Palm Beach without blending those medians.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singer Island real estate — clear answers for buyers and sellers.
Is Singer Island part of the Town of Palm Beach?
No. Singer Island sits north of the Lake Worth Inlet. Palm Beach Island is a different municipality south of the inlet. Buyers who want Singer Island should search that name — not the Town of Palm Beach.
Is Singer Island the same as Riviera Beach?
Most of the island is inside the City of Riviera Beach, but luxury clients search Singer Island. Mainland Riviera Beach west of the Intracoastal is a different product. Palm Beach Shores at the south tip is its own town.
What is Palm Beach Shores?
A small incorporated town at the south end of Singer Island, next to the inlet. It has its own community guide so it is not lost inside a Riviera Beach or Palm Beach page.
