Castillo De Santiago

We really enjoyed visiting the castle. We were a mixed group of adults and children as well as half English speaking and half Spanish. There was a link you could use to listen to audio commentary as you walked around in both languages also for adults or children. There was lots of information about the castle and the history of the area.

The castle is certainly not as imposing as some we have visited in the area, but it offers a warm welcome at reception., some interesting history and a small museum of costumes and arms. Well worth a look if you're in town

Very beautiful and well maintained castle with a nice view from the tower over the city. We were positively surprised about the opening times (see photo). The entrance fee is 9 Euro per adult. We were not so happy with the audio guide. You have to scan a QR code with your phone but when you want to listen the (too long) explanations, you can't take photos. So you have to choose: guide OR photos. Not smart.

There is so much to see: the visit of the well restored Castle, includes free guided tour/audio via QR code, step by step description at each station. An incredible site, for 10€ pp., it's well worth taking the time to understand the many eras of history that made South of Spain what it is today. It transport you through the medieval times up to the Renaissance. Just the walk from the Mercado de Abastos up to the Castillo offered a delightful 180° view of the white city and the ocean a km. ahead.

Beautiful castle in Sanlúcar with interesting history. It costs about €8-€9 per person and they give you the handheld “tour guide” to use while you’re there. You’re prompted by signage to press the applicable number for the area you are walking through and the guide tells you all about it. We went around noon and there was only a few other people there, however parking was still difficult, so I imagine the earlier you get there, the better. My favorite part was the view from the top of the lord’s tower and the mermaid door.

Super awesome castle that's a must see while in town. There is an audio guide link you can scan and listen to as you walk around. From here a few minutes drive to the beach to see Baluarte San Salvador and the beautiful sunset. Hopefully the city will clean up the Baluarte San Salvador area and preserve the historical significance of it.

From the outside and at the entrance we weren't expecting much but this is a great castle to explore! Lots of rooms with interesting maps! Make sure to climb the tower!

Excellent tour! Be sure to bring ear buds so you don't have to blast your phone speaker.
