About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Palm Beach Tan with an unusual package. As he approached the door, a regular was admiring his latest tanning creation in the mirror. The two exchanged greetings, but it wasn’t until the driver mentioned something about ‘tanning lotion for plants’ that both men burst into laughter. Turns out, the delivery driver had mistakenly picked up some gardening supplies meant for a neighbor’s greenhouse. The regular, thinking quickly on his feet, offered to help test out the new product—after all, what could go wrong? By sunset, they discovered that their tans were glowing not just from UV rays, but also from an unexpected greenish hue.
2. At closing time one night, a curious cat sauntered into Palm Beach Tan through an open door. It kept darting between chairs and staring intently at the closed tanning beds, as if searching for something—or someone—missing. Finally, a sleepy employee emerged from the back room and called out, ‘Hey, feline friend! What brings you here?’ The cat yawned, stretched, then trotted over to the counter and sat down, clearly expecting coffee or treats. Everyone burst into laughter, realizing it was just another late-night visitor, probably thinking the salon never closed.
3. At dawn, a jogger passing Palm Beach Tan noticed something odd: every morning, exactly at six, a faint humming sound would emanate from inside the salon. Curious, she approached the door and saw an elderly man with a toothbrush in his hand, singing softly to himself. Turns out, he was just cleaning the windows while waiting for customers. ‘Morning serenade,’ he smiled, wiping away the last drops of water. The jogger laughed and waved goodbye, wondering if Palm Beach Tan had hired a new entertainer or if all beauticians were secretly musical geniuses.
4. At opening time one day, a sign appeared on Palm Beach Tan’s door: ‘Today’s special—tan faster than you can say “Florida sun”!’ Inside, customers soon noticed that their tans were indeed speeding up—so fast they started glowing like Christmas lights! A delivery driver complained his package was delivered before he even signed for it. The manager shrugged and said, 'Welcome to Palm Beach Tan—where your tan is so fast, Florida might as well be Alaska!'
