Aguilas is an ancient town with a history stretching back into the mists of time, its occupiers included Greeks, Iberians, Romans, Visigoths and Moors. The Romans called it Aquilae.
The town as it stands today was largely developed in the times of Carlos III (Charles 3rd) during the eighteenth century, though it was tied to the city of Lorca until becoming independent in 1834.
This long and chequered history has left its mark on the town and the result for visitors today is that there is a wealth of interesting places to visit in the area. Among these are the 18th century Castle de San Juan de las Aguilas, the sixteenth century Torre de Cope, the Railway Monument, the Chuecos and Tebar fortified watchtowers, and another watchtower built in the eighteenth century and called the Dovecote.
Another place you can visit is Fraile Island, located to the east of Aguilas, here you can watch dolphins or see a large colony of gulls, Fraile Island is a protected nature reserve.
