Walk the northern wall to compare San Lucas with nearby Santa Catalina. The operator traces its seventeenth-century redesign and describes two covered positions, two sentry boxes and a ramp. Its rebuilt defenses show how the wall adapted after the 1697 attack. It is a short outdoor stop; confirm on-site which sections visitors can enter.
