Welcome to Boca Raton Florida
Incorporated in 1925, Boca Raton
is a Floridian city that lies on the water and faces the Bahamas
and the North Atlantic Ocean.
Though its name is Spanish for
'rat's mouth' this is misleading, as the term 'boca' describes
an inlet, fitting for a city that includes so much water.
Salsa fans will find this a pleasant and affluent city, with
strict zoning laws keeping billboards out and buildings low.
Nothing interferes with the wonderful
waterfront view that Boca Raton Residents take for granted. This
beautiful city gives easy access to the beach and salsa enthusiasts
can bask in the warm temperatures that prevail year round.
The average low is 76F while
the average high is a tropical 90F, just like the Caribbean.
It's the perfect weather for salsa action, so make sure you attend
a Latin theme party or Cuban theme party, watch a Latin dance
show.
The city is home to several wealthy communities, including many
residents with ties to Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela and other
South American countries.
That means that salsa fans will
have lots of chances to listen to Cuban music and Latin music,
to hear some live bands and to do some salsa dancing.
While the city was once famous for two amusement parks, long
since closed, it later became known as the home of IBM, which
lasted into the mid-1990s. These days, Boca Raton has become
a haven for the rich and famous, with many sports stars purchasing
homes there.
