Historic tower right by the sea
It was originally a medieval defence tower built onto an old acropolis which was destroyed during the reign of Louis XIV. It was transformed in 1825 into a belvedere decorated with mosaics depicting Greek motifs.
Although closed, you can enjoy its beautiful exterior and the breathtaking views of the sea from its terrace.
