Tavernier History

The city is named after the famous French traveler and merchant, Jean-Baptiste Tavernier, who never actually visited Florida.

The history of Tavernier, Florida, can be traced back to the early 1800s, when the area was largely uninhabited and covered in dense mangrove forests. It wasn't until the late 1800s that settlers began to arrive in the area, drawn by the abundant fishing and natural resources. In the early 1900s, the area began to attract tourists, who were drawn to the area's natural beauty and relaxed way of life.
