Ocean Ridge’s The History of Ocean Ridge

Originally part of the larger community of Boynton Beach, settlers started making the area later to be known as Ocean Ridge, their home in 1885. Widely hailed as “the most tropical part of the state and insuring the most even temperatures”, the area became even more popular with incoming settlers seeking a seaside paradise to raise their families. In 1931, the area that would be later known as Ocean Ridge, was officially designated by the Florida State Legislature.

Since then, like much of this extraordinary locale, Ocean Ridge has benefited from the quality development, infrastructure and explosion of cultural and natural wealth that has become synonymous with the Florida Gold Coast. Befitting such an exclusive area, Ocean Ridge continues to attract some of the most discriminating and elite homebuyers in the region.
