A tapering tower 11.5 metres high at the water's edge, its entrance 7.30 metres up, reached by a ladder that was then pulled in. Unlike the other two towers of Benalmádena it was built after the Christian conquest, well into the 16th century: no document names it before 1511. A stone coat of arms of the time of Carlos III lies beside it.
