Cabrera Tower

This 16th-century coastal tower right on the central square of Marina di Ragusa has gone by a handful of names over the years — Torre Mazzarelli, Torre della Dogana, Torre di Gaddimeli — each hinting at a different chapter of its history. Built as a defensive watchtower, it sits just meters from the sea and the old port, making it one of those rare spots where you can feel the weight of centuries of Mediterranean history without going out of your way. It's an easy, rewarding stop if you're wandering the marina area.
