A 10-metre rubble watchtower at the entrance to the Benalmádena marina. Its date is disputed: the article holds it to be a 14th-century Muslim work and later places it at the end of the 15th; the Ordinances of 1497 already name it. The double cornice at the top and the base reinforcement, added in 1567, are Christian.
