About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Palm Beach Tan, customers started noticing something peculiar one morning. A little girl, playing nearby, suddenly froze in her tracks and pointed towards the window. Inside, an employee’s shadow seemed to move on its own, stretching and contracting like it had a mind of its own. Curious passersby gathered around, snapping photos with their phones. It turned out that the 'haunting' shadow was just a reflection from a passing delivery driver's hat. The incident became a local joke—every time someone saw a strange shadow, they’d whisper, ‘Oh no, is it Palm Beach Tan again?’

2. At Palm Beach Tan, one foggy morning, a delivery driver noticed something strange: the sign above the door seemed to change colors depending on where you stood. Curious, he walked around the building and found that only from one spot across the street the sign read ‘Sale Today!’ Finally, realizing what was going on, everyone burst out laughing—except maybe the poor neighbor watering his palm tree, who thought it was just another crazy day in Palm Beach.

3. At Palm Beach Tan, one humid afternoon, an employee heard an unusual sound coming from the ceiling vents. Curious, she investigated and found herself staring at a tiny parrot whispering tanning tips to the sunlamps. The parrot turned out to be a regular customer’s pet who had accidentally flown in through an open window. The bird became quite the celebrity among clients, giving free advice on how long to stay under each lamp for optimal tan. By the end of the week, everyone at Palm Beach Tan was laughing as they joked that their new mascot would soon open its own branch—‘Parrot Palms’—next door.

4. At Palm Beach Tan, while customers were relaxing under the sun, a regular exclaimed, ‘Did you see that? The clouds are moving in shapes of animals!’ Everyone looked up and indeed, the sky above the salon seemed to be painting shifting silhouettes of elephants, dolphins, and even unicorns. Suddenly, an enthusiastic delivery driver chimed in, pointing towards the ceiling, ‘And look! It’s a pony riding a bicycle!’ Everyone burst out laughing as the shapes continued to shift and amuse them. When they finally left, one satisfied customer whispered to another, ‘I’ll never believe again when they say Palm Beach doesn’t have magic.’
