Bicentennial Park and Marina Village Filming Location

Bicentennial Park and Marina Village is a public waterfront property located along the Intracoastal Waterway in Riviera Beach. The site combines marina operations, open public space, event areas, and waterfront architecture into a flexible filming environment that can support everything from coastal lifestyle shoots to municipal and tourism-based storylines.

The marina area includes floating docks, boat slips, vessel traffic, that provide authentic marine visuals without the density of a major commercial port. Open water views stretch across the Intracoastal with passing boats, seawalls, and layered shoreline compositions that change throughout the day depending on light and tide conditions.

The park itself features open lawns, paved walkways, seating areas, fishing access points, kayak rental, splash pad activity, large banyan tree, date palm plaza, and waterfront gathering spaces that work well for pedestrian movement, dialogue scenes, and establishing shots. Palm-lined pathways and contemporary lighting elements help frame the waterfront while maintaining clean sightlines toward the marina and waterway.

Marina Village introduces a more modern architectural feel with coastal colors  in the hardscaping (tan and turquoise) covered structures, event facilities, and shaded public areas that support hospitality, festival, and community event visuals. The mix of waterfront infrastructure and open civic space allows productions to move efficiently between marine, recreation, and event-oriented settings within the same footprint.

Its location near the Port of Palm Beach also introduces industrial maritime textures nearby, offering productions access to both polished waterfront visuals and working coastal infrastructure within close proximity.

Scout Note

The strongest establishing shots are captured along the waterfront promenade where marina activity, open water, and palm-lined walkways layer naturally into frame. Early mornings typically provide calmer water surfaces and cleaner ambient sound conditions, while late afternoons introduce stronger reflections and active boat traffic. The event lawn works well for staging equipment or wide crowd shots, and the marina edge provides good depth for tracking shots along the docks. Camera angles facing east help isolate water and sky, while west-facing views can incorporate the surrounding marina village structures and urban coastal atmosphere. The property’s compact layout makes company moves relatively easy between waterfront, event, and marina zones.
