Watchtower of Cap d'Or

Hiking route to the Watchtower of Cap d'Or in Moraira. Easy difficulty route with spectacular views of the Marina Alta.

The views from here are simply wonderful!!! The tower is located right on the top of the cliff, which makes it an ideal place for clear views to all sides. Once descending, do not forget to pass by the sandy beach of El Portet, one of the most beautiful in the entire Marina Alta!

The view over the coast ..... just great !!
The watchtower of the Cap d'or is located in the town of Moraira and belongs to the Province of Valencia. The tower is 11 meters high, its circumference is 26 meters and it is almost at the edge of the cliff. The Torre del Cap d`Or is part of the surveillance system that King Felipe II built by engineer Antonelli.
