Timeline
16:17
Start with a free tour at the St. Augustine Distillery. The old ice plant is a cool backdrop, and you can sample small-batch spirits while the afternoon light is still bright.
17:02
Walk to Casa Maya for an early dinner. The converted house in downtown St. Augustine offers authentic Latin dishes that pair well with the cooling evening air.
17:32
Head to Oglethorpe Battery Park. This is your spot. From here, you can watch the sun set toward the WSW over the water, just as General James Oglethorpe’s forces once aimed their cannons.
18:17
End the evening at the Oldest House Museum Complex. The ornamental garden and historic grounds offer a quiet, reflective place to decompress after the sunset viewing.
Local tip
Casa Maya is open until 22:00 on weekdays, giving you plenty of time to dine before the sunset. The distillery tours are free, but check if you need to reserve a spot for the tasting.
