Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: Perched dramatically on a rocky headland, the castle offers panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea stretching for miles. Its walls once housed the Knights Templar, adding layers of legendary intrigue to the site.
Punti salienti: A spectacular feature lies in the castle's maze-like corridors and ancient battlements that you can explore amidst the sound of waves crashing below. The sunlight filtering through narrow slit windows creates a magical play of shadow and light along the stone walls, enhancing the ancient atmosphere.
Consigli da insider
- Wear comfortable shoes as the uneven stone surfaces demand steady footing.
- Head to the eastern battlements for the most stunning sunrise photo opportunities.
- Avoid weekends and Spanish public holidays to escape larger tourist groups.
- Don't miss the small chapel inside, often skipped by quick visitors but rich in history.
