The name "Es Forti" translates to "The Fort" in English, and it refers to the remnants of a small fortress or watchtower that once stood on the peninsula near to Cala d´Or.
This defensive structure was built during the 17th century to protect the coast from pirate attacks and to serve as a lookout point for approaching ships. Today, the ruins of Es Forti are a popular spot for visitors to enjoy panoramic views of the coastline and sea.
The peninsula offers several vantage points from which visitors can admire the stunning scenery and take photographs of the surrounding landscape.
