The real place

La Punta was built at the end of the 16th century. In wartime a chain was stretched across the harbour mouth between La Punta and El Morro to keep enemy ships out.

Visiting

La Punta is at the end of the Malecon, the seafront promenade. Walk west along the Malecon from here at sunset.
