St. Michael’s Fortress

Why go

The ascent ties the street-level old town to the wider coastal landscape. Once at the fortress, terraces give room to look over the harbour, and the surviving walls show why the height mattered. Events can affect access, so confirm the day’s arrangements before making the climb.

What to look for

• Fortress terraces face the harbour and islands.
• Defensive walls still mark the hilltop site.

Useful to know

• Check event days and opening information before climbing.
