Belle Glade and the lake communities

Belle Glade

The largest of the Glades communities, on the southeastern shore of Lake Okeechobee, surrounded by sugarcane and vegetable farms.

Pahokee and Canal Point

North along the lake and the dike, where homes sit closest to the water and can feel the full force of storms coming across the lake.

South Bay

West of Belle Glade on the lake's southern rim, near the Palm Beach and Hendry county line.

Because the Glades are about an hour from the coast, describe the damage clearly when you call so the provider can bring the right equipment. Coverage outside Palm Beach County is not guaranteed; the person you speak with will confirm.
