Penon de Velez de la Gomera is a rocky tied island, in the western Mediterranean Sea, connected to the Moroccan shore by a sandy isthmus. It was conquered by Spain in 1508. In 1522, Spain lost the Peñón to the Moroccan Wattasids. Ali Abu Hassun, new Wattasid ruler of Morocco in 1554, gave the Peñón to Ottoman troops who had assisted him in gaining the throne.
