The Castle of San Juan de los Terreros is an 18th-century fortress located 109 meters above the Mediterranean. Built between 1760 and 1764 as part of the defensive system against pirates and rival powers. Its characteristic horseshoe shape and bastions offer a fine example of military architecture of the time. What most attracts visitors are its panoramic views, as from the top you can contemplate the open sea, and the coast stretching towards Águilas and the Sierra Almagrera to the south.

October 6, 2024,Rennradtour: Mar de Pulpí entlang der Küstenstraße bis Villaricos, Garrucha und Mojácar
Mar de Pulpí is the most north-eastern town in Andalusia and the Costa de Almería. A beautiful coastal road leads south for about 12 km, constantly up and down, to Villaricos.
