Why you'd want to live in Wellington

Sandy beaches give way to greener pastures for horse lovers in Wellington. Home to an internationally recognized equestrian community (with a social scene to match), this city in The Palm Beaches offers endless opportunities to play by day and ride off into the sunset at night. Each January through April, Wellington’s equestrian season leaps into action. The Winter Equestrian Festival welcomes the world’s top riders in show jumping and dressage for 12 weeks of competition. During Palm Beach International Polo Season, you can’t swing a mallet without hitting a daily event, field-side brunch or champagne-soaked party. Capping it all off is the International Gay Polo Tournament, with non-stop excitement happening on and off the field. Find a fabulous hat for the match (or just a little retail therapy) at The Mall at Wellington Green. via thepalmbeaches.com
