The tower of the Isola Rossa, often mistakenly called the Aragonese Tower, was built between 1578 and 1595 to protect the territory from Saracen pirates. Subsequently, when the defensive needs no longer existed, the structure continued to be used to counter the clandestine trafficking that took place between Sardinia and nearby Corsica.

The view from the tower is magnificent. From here a path leads to La Marinedda beach.

From here a footpath leads to the Spiaggia La Marinedda. So don't forget your bathing suit!

The Tower of the Red Island, also called (perhaps erroneously) the Aragonese Tower, stands on a hill on the island and is a watchtower built between 1578 and 1595 to protect the territory from Saracen pirates.
