La Mola & Cala Taulera


The fort of Isabel II is on La Mola which was built by the Spanish around 1850 and although not involved in any major battles was a major deterrent and even in use as a prison and training ground up until the 1970’s.  It is huge and we had a good few hours wandering around and luckily the forecast rain held off.

Audio tour was excellent !

It was also ideal for us to visit as we are anchored in Cala Taulera which was just below the fort so we could dingy ashore.
