Lonely Planet review for Torre Apprezzami L'Asino
The curiously named Torre Apprezzami L'Asino is one of the six Spanish towers built in the 16th century as defence against pirates and invaders. It translates as 'Value my Donkey' tower. It is said to derive its name from an encounter between two travellers on a narrow cliff-side path. Coming from different directions and unable to pass each other they decided to throw the donkey of lesser value off the cliff.
The coastline is also dotted with numerous grottoes or sea caves, some of which can only be reached by boat.
