It overlooks the Gulf of Arbatax, a short distance from the Rocce Rosse, facing an extraordinarily clear sea with iridescent reflections, surrounded by fascinating landscapes. Ponente Beach, on the Tortolì coast, extends from the port of Arbatax for about a kilometer and a half, to the canal connecting the Tortolì lagoon and the sea. A pine forest lines the beach for its entire length and separates it from the parallel Baccàsara canal behind it. The beach is divided into two sections by the canal's outlet to the sea: the section adjacent to the port is smaller, crescent-shaped, with very light sand, also known as the "riva di ponente" (west shore); in the wider section, the sand takes on a characteristic ochre color and is mixed with pebbles and shells; this stretch is known as La Capannina. The sea has iridescent hues, from green to turquoise, with a sandy seabed. For several years running, it has been awarded the Blue Flag as one of the best Italian beaches.

Walking along the coast of Santa Maria Navarrese (Baunei district) you can come across the Spanish Tower, a silent witness to history that has watched over the fate of the inhabitants of the central east coast of Sardinia for over five hundred years

The tower was built around 1591, when as many as 40 towers existed along the Sardinian coast (today there are just over 100). The tower is in direct visual connection with that of Arbatax, a logistical solution that allowed the service garrisons in the two buildings to control the entire gulf. From here the view of the gulf is beautiful.

THE “SPANISH TOWER” The Spanish Tower of S. Maria Navarrese is clear evidence that the problem of the incursions of Saracen pirates, who often plagued the stretch of coast between Villaputzu and Arbatax, was also felt in this area. Today there are 93 coastal towers along the Sardinian coast: the first were built during the time of Charles V (1516-1556) in the middle of the 16th century, but it was only under his successor Philip II (1556-1598) that the defense system was created institutionalized with the creation of a special “Royal Administration of the Towers” in 1581, which, in addition to overseeing the planning and construction of new towers, also had to manage in detail the costs and repairs of existing towers.

It was originally known as "Taratasciar" in Arabic, which means thirteenth tower. In the 17th century it was called Torre di Zacurru and only in 1767 did it acquire its current name.
