A warm late-afternoon breeze off Matanzas Bay carries the smell of citrus and frying seafood as the group assembles across from the Lightner Museum. Guides gesture toward narrow streets where Spanish-period coquina walls meet 19th-century brick and point out the next tasting stop — a buzzy tavern two doors down, a family-run eatery with recipes passed through generations. The walk moves at a human pace: cobbles, short stair cuts and shaded courtyards link every bite to a story.
