The idyllic town of Jupiter—a South Florida beach oasis—draws active families from all over the country who want to dive into water sports, play golf year-round or enjoy other outdoor pursuits. Celebrating the sporty lifestyle is the nearby Atlantic Fields, a luxe, private residential community that brings the best of the area to its members.

Located in neighboring Martin County’s Hobe Sound, the amenities-packed (including 24-hour security) and sustainability-focused Atlantic Fields—part of Discovery Land Company’s exclusive portfolio of properties—is a draw for nature-loving families. A former citrus grove, the property features incredible views of the native lands surrounding its 1,500 acres, on which sit 317 luxury homes. Water conservation, renewable energy, waste reduction efforts and extensive recycling are prioritized throughout the community.

“At Discovery, we build environments for families to gather, adventure, and create unforgettable memories,” says Discovery Land Company chairman and founder Mike Meldman. “Atlantic Fields is no different.” 

All Atlantic Fields, residents have access to their community’s 18-hole, Tom Fazio-designed golf course. Local to the area, Fazio crafted a course that mirrors South Florida’s elegant sand dunes as it winds its way along the property’s lakes. There’s also a diner and a 10-hole short course, plus a pioneering Discovery Performance Center that will feature Trackman technology to give players precise data needed to up their game. 

Also on property are an Adventure Center and Family Park, which offer family fun via a kids club, a water park, a pool, a picnic spot and sports fields. A barn for arts and crafts and a Lake Club round out the offerings. Adults and older kids will love the state-of-the-art Equestrian Center and the Racquet Club, which provides courts for tennis, pickleball and the hot new game, padel. Days on the beach (it’s just minutes away), sport fishing and yachting can be arranged through the community’s Outdoor Pursuits program.

Since wellness is of utmost importance to Atlantic Fields and the Discovery brand, residents have access to a private farm (with family plots, berry and fruit patches, beehives and chicken coops), a wellness center with a spa, salon, barbershop and other amenities. There is also a Club Village with the main Clubhouse and resort-style pools.

“With all that Hobe Sound has to offer,” Meldman says, “we knew it would be the perfect setting for like-minded families to embrace their healthy lifestyles while enjoying farm-to-table cuisine and one of a kind outdoor sporting activities.” atlanticfieldsclub.com
