The Castle of Guardias Viejas is a fortification located in the municipality of El Ejido. Its construction dates back to the 18th century and was designed to defend the coast from Barbary pirates. Over the years, the castle has been restored and turned into a cultural and exhibition center. From its tower, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Almeria coastline and the nearest beaches.
