Did You Know... Pahokee

Did you know the City of Pahokee is Palm Beach County's "other coast"? Pahokee, whose name translates to "grassy waters," is located in west Palm Beach County. It is the only city that sits directly on the shores of Lake Okeechobee, Florida's largest lake. Pahokee's unique location offers another "coastline" opposite the county's east coast on the Atlantic Ocean. Reprinted from Quality Cities July/August 2004 Back to City Trivia Home
