Five slow Saturday mornings in Delray Beach

A swim, a market, a bookshop and two good coffees: an unhurried guide to the village by the sea.

Delray Beach is at its best before ten in the morning. Here are five easy ways to spend one.

  1. A swim at the public beach before the umbrellas go up.
  2. The green market for fruit, flowers and something warm.
  3. A slow walk west along Atlantic Avenue.
  4. An hour in a quiet bookshop.
  5. Coffee on a shaded terrace, watching the street wake up.
