Pelican Harbor is a small waterfront community in Delray Beach, the kind of place where boat access and canal frontage define daily life rather than square footage on a spreadsheet. It sits within easy reach of everything that makes the coast worth living on, and it keeps a low-key, residential feel compared to the busier stretches of Delray Beach homes for sale. Buyers who look here tend to want the water first and the address second.
The market reality is straightforward: this is a tight, high-end pocket with very little inventory. Right now there's a single active listing at $2,995,000, running about $1,130 per square foot, so you're competing for scarcity, not choosing among options. Over the last year only three homes sold, at a median of $1,600,000, and sellers collected around 92% of asking — worth keeping in mind if you're eyeing nearby communities like Kings Point In Delray Beach or Pines Of Delray North as alternatives. Watch the live map closely, because good listings here move fast.

Pelican Harbor FAQs
Is Pelican Harbor a good place to live?+
It's a good fit if you want waterfront living in a small, quiet Delray Beach neighborhood rather than a big master-planned community. The current inventory is centered on waterfront homes with pools, which tells you exactly who this pocket is built for. Buyers who prefer more choice often also look at Delray Colonial nearby.
Is Pelican Harbor expensive?+
Yes — this is a high-end pocket. The one active listing is priced at $2,995,000, and homes trade at roughly $1,130 per square foot, well above much of the surrounding market. Over the last twelve months the median sold price was $1,600,000.
What do homes cost in Pelican Harbor?+
The single active listing is $2,995,000 for about 2,650 square feet, while the three homes sold in the past year came in at a median of $1,600,000. The spread reflects how much waterfront position and finishes drive price here. If that's above your range, communities like Delray Manor are worth a look.
How is the market in Pelican Harbor?+
It's tight and fast. With only one home active and three sold in the past year, inventory is scarce, and the median days on market is just four. Sellers are getting about 92% of their asking price on average, so pricing and preparation both matter.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
There's no HOA figure reported for the current listings here, so budget primarily around the property itself. Property taxes run high given the price point — the median is about $26,664 per year. If you'd rather rent first, the median in this area is around $11,000 per month.
