    Unfortunately, not much is left of the former watchtower Torre vigía del Pinet on the beach of the same name in the Elche region near La Marina.
    Built in the 16th century, 14 meters high with 3 floors.
    The tower was one of the many towers that were intended to protect the city of Elche against attacks by the Moors and pirates, who then had a base on the nearby island of Tabarca.

      Rather disappointing for me. Not much remains of the tower.
