According to the Palm Beach County Tourist Development Council, visits to Palm Beach County rose to a record 6.6 million in 2015, up from 6.3 million the year before. That translates into $46 million in bed taxes, $7.6 billion in economic impact and more than 66,000 jobs. Tim Stepien/The Coastal Star
