The Portogreco tower was built in 1568 between Vieste and Mattinata. The beach is very wild and spartan with a seabed of rocks and pebbles. To access, there is a path that leads to the tower. From the tower, you can see the Aglio and Pugnochiuso towers. At the time, fireworks, mirrors and lenses were used to communicate between one and the other.
