Today the seat of the Harbor Master's Office, after the overly invasive restoration discussed, it still holds the primacy of symbol of the town that hosts tourists and locals to enjoy the sea view, the flavors and the wind, which always blows here.

San Foca is a fraction of Melendugno overlooking the Adriatic Sea. It is a famous seaside resort with one of the largest and best equipped marinas on the coast. The small panoramic terrace is dominated by a 16th century coastal tower, built for lookout purposes and defense against pirate raids.
