The yacht slips from Camachee Cove as a low sun threads the marsh grasses; gulls argue with the wind and the harbor hum recedes into a ribbon of docks. On a two-hour sunset sail you move with the tide, watching dolphins cut arcs through the Tolomato and Matanzas Rivers while the old city’s skyline sharpens—a lighthouse silhouette, the curve of a Spanish fort, the slow opening of a bascule bridge.
