    Hiking

    To reach the Castillo de San Gabriel (Castle of Saint Gabriel)
    you can walk across the Puente de las Bolas (Bridge of Balls).
    A small drawbridge with two cannonballs on its pillars.
    It connects the mainland with the stone fortress built in the 16th century.
    The fortress was declared a national historical monument in 1972 and now houses a small ethnographic museum.
