After the old town was abandoned in the seventies the land was looked after by the Military. Today it is slowly being redeveloped as a leisure and water sports area. The old high down the centre of the land is totally abandoned but one can guess its former importance by the lines of tall mature palm trees. Now a one way traffic system runs around the outside of the peninsular giving access to the restaurants, cafes and bars as well as well as the fishing jetties. The Club Nautico occupies an old rustic blue building and the new port and marina facility is an impressive example of recent investment.
