The fort is no longer used as a military base. It is open to visitors to look around. It will cost you a few dinar to enter. This fort is quite an impressive substantial building. It is not really huge though .There are steps up to the top of the walls and you can walk right around getting a really good sea view . This fort is in a good defensive position .
The centre of the fort is just the pounded floor with a small building in the centre . This houses just a cell .
It did not take long to walk around the fort but it was quite interesting. Certainly worth looking at from the outside and if you want a good sea view then do walk on the ramparts
