Port Tower

Highlight • Historical Site

The Porto tower, better known as the Aragonese Tower, is an icon of the area located in the city's port. Built in 1325 on the orders of the Aragonese admiral Carroz after the conquest of the territory, the tower had the dual function of sighting and protection of the city centre. Its octagonal structure recalls the Catalan architectural style.

Over the centuries, it has taken on various tasks: in the 15th century it was used as a customs office for tax control, in the 16th century it was used as a bulwark against attacks by Barbary pirates, in the 17th century the guardians also took on the task of monitor ships to prevent the spread of the plague, while in the 20th century it was converted into a lighthouse.

Acque Dolci Beach

Highlight • Beach

Small but charming cycle path along the Portotorres seafront. From the port, it goes up to the little church and the Balai beach passing through the city beaches of Scoglio Lungo and Acque Dolci.
Acque Dolci is a free equipped beach: there are showers, bars, lifeguard service. Perfect for families, even if it is very crowded in summer.

Marina di Sorso Cycle and Pedestrian Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The new cycle and pedestrian area of the Marina di Sorso is a stretch of road reserved for bicycles and pedestrians along the coastal provincial road. It skirts the coastal pine forests, with splendid views of the sea, the Pond of Platamona and the coastal spots. Well infrastructured, separated from vehicular traffic and well signposted, it is an excellent stretch to cycle safely.
