What remains
Standing

A 10-metre Naṣrid watchtower at the entrance to the Benalmádena marina, named in the Ordinances of 1497 and repaired by Castile for the coastal watch. In 1567 Pedro de la Chica, the mason of Torre Quebrada, added the conical reinforcement at its base against the wind; the double cornice at the top is Christian too. Its interior cannot be visited.
