Castillo de San Marcos

Castillo de San Marcos is located in El Puerto de Santa Maria. It’s a beautiful mosque/church/fortress/castle all rolled into one! The stained glass, arches, art, towers… are well intact and so nice to see. Plus, climbing to the top of one of the towers provides an awesome view of Puerto and out to sea. The audio included with your entry tour is quite interesting (so bring headphones). The gals that are at the entrance are always so nice too! Be sure to visit this castle whenever in Puerto!

Well worth a ferry ride for a day trip from Cadiz. Very interesting site well presented and the English audio guide was amusing to listen to. Get lost, don't follow the numbered exhibits and you absolutely must climb up to the top of the tower... if you're fit.

The Castillo de San Marcos is a historical gem in the heart of El Puerto de Santa María. Its blend of Christian architecture and Muslim remnants makes it a fascinating place for history lovers. It is very well preserved and offers guided tours that reveal its intriguing past, from its origins as a mosque to its transformation into a Christian fortress. The surroundings are pleasant and it's close to other points of interest, making it an essential stop if you're visiting the area. Additionally, the staff is friendly and provides valuable information during the tour. A highly recommended experience.

Visited the castle, which is quite compact. Some interiors that can be viewed, inner courtyard and exteriors. Highlight is going up to the roof of the castle where one tower was open as well to be climbed to the top. All in all a nice castle to visit, that does not require too much time.
