Raske fakta: An imposing fortress that dominates the entrance of the bay, famous for its massive stone structure and cannons that once protected the city from naval attacks. Besides its military function, it offers incredible panoramic views of the sea and the old city.
Høydepunkter: The highlight is the red lighthouse at the top of the tower, which lights up with a warm glow and is visible for miles. Walking through the dark tunnels and stone walls reveals stories of ancient battles and detailed defense strategies.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes as the ground can be uneven.
- Bring sunscreen and water since there is little shade during the walk.
- The best photo angles are from the southern wall, near the lighthouse.
- Avoid midday to escape crowds and intense heat.
