The Sea Castle (Ksar El Bhar)

This "Sea Castle", built by the Portuguese in the 15th century, was used for a time as the governor's seat. It served as a fortress to defend and protect the northern part of the old port, the city and the Governor's Residence. Completely restored in 1963, its large monumental door opens onto the parade ground, where around ten old Spanish and Dutch cannons are positioned, pointing towards the ocean. From the southwest bastion of the Château de Mer, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the sea, the port and the old medina.
