The sea fortress was built between the 14th and 17th centuries, reconstructed in 1833, converted into a summer cinema from 1952 and later into a discotheque. The fort rests on strong rocks above the path along the coast and within its walls is a door leading from the coast to the top of the fort. On the top of the fort there is a porta di mare (sea door) with rudiments from the Bosnian period.

A visit to Forte Mare is a must. It offers a beautiful panoramic view and you can also visit the old prison.
