My husband and I went to one of the concerts this summer, 120 euros for both of us with an all-you-can-eat buffet of fine food, ham and fried fish. In the end, 5 pieces of fish on a plate and a small plate of ham and as we left, two boats left. The first for those who had gold bracelets and the second for those who had silver bracelets. Nobody told us why one or the other. In short... much room for improvement.

We visited the castle in Familia. Anabel the guide gave us a brief explanation of the long history of the islet. From the Phoenicians, Romans to their military use until the 19th century. Pleasure to hear you and bring us a little history. Maybe hopefully, we'll meet again at Mercat Temple.
Thank you very much Anabel.

Take the organised sunset tour from Sancti petri old port , 12 euro per adult 7 per child
About an hour trip round the port and to the castle
Great photo opportunities of the beach , castle , port at sunset
Safe , comfortable boat , nice way to pass an hour then back to one of the beach bars
George's is worth a visit
About the second bar along from Barossa end , good drinks , friendly service music and impromptu dancing !!

We hired an excursion through the castle page, the visit started at 10:30 but ended at 15:10, according to them they can not make the return earlier because the tide was low; the truth is that we found it a cheap excuse, since the visit (including the explanation of the guide) can be finished before 13 hours (more than enough time) and I see no other reason than to go to pick up at 15:10 (in our case, at 15:35) if not for us to stay to eat at the bar, in fact when we got on the boat they said that it was forbidden to bring food from outside, which we did not listen and we took the snacks that we had prepared (like the other tourists). So if you want the visit to be more positive, you can’t have us “kidnapped” so long to consume because in the end the experience becomes a bad experience and I won’t recommend the visit to anyone. Guide her well.

Difficult to know how to rate this as an attraction. Do not expect or plan to spend much time there unless it is for sunbathing. The castle is quite small and, as an attraction in itself, somewhat dull. However as part of a 2 hour trip which includes boat rides from and back to the port in Sancti Petri it is excellent. Guided tours are available, but not in English (at least not when we were there). We booked the trip with Novojet which is next to the port and they were very helpful and do have English speakers. The cost of the trip is reduced if no guide is available and we paid €40 for 2 adults and 2 children. The children particularly enjoyed the boat rides and we felt that it was money well spent.

Get a kayak, a bottle of wine and two glasses and that's all you need to have a nice and even romantic time with your partner watching the sunset. Try to get back before it's dark...

Be careful in very windy days. The views from the castle are fantastic. Better going by kayak than by swimming.

We didn't expect to find this Castillo so interesting but it really was.

We took a boat from el pueblo de Sancti Petri and took us around 15min to get there. Make sure you get the right boat from the company you get tickets from as there were other boats taking people there and can get a but confusing.

Once we got to the islote a guide took us around the castle and told us a lot about the history of the place. He was excellent but be aware the whole thing was in Spanish and also you have to pay the entrance separately from the boat.

Don't buy drinks at the little bar as they can be a bit pricy.

The experience was totally worth it but if you don't understand Spanish you might miss out.
