Defensive watchtower from the 16th century. 13.5 m high, it is part of the network of fortifications built along the coast in the 16th century to prevent the constant incursions of Barbary pirates.

Scenic location. Unfortunately, the entrance is bricked, so you can not enter the tower.

Also known as the Torre del Jarro or the Torre del Agua Dulce, the tower rises about 100 meters above sea level and offers very nice views towards the coast. Built in the 16th century, it fulfilled the function of fortification and surveillance of the Valencian coast at the time of the ancient Kingdom of Valencia.
